Red Hat Linux: passwd

From: ALBEE,RUSSELL. S FC2 (CV63 CS5) <ALBEER(at)kitty-hawk.navy.mil>

How does passwd determine if a password is based off a dictionary word or not? Is there a file somewhere it references, a dictionary built into the code, or a algorithim it uses to check the password?

Thanks,
