If I recall correctly, I think that if your sysval is currently *NOMAX for password expiration and you do a sysval change to a new value, anyone who hasn't changed their password in more than that number of days (lets say 60) will have to change it at next signon. Reason for this is their last password change date would be more than 60 days, since you don't force changes right now. So be prepared for some password change pain. I believe the system starts to inform at signon with 7 days or less remaining, whether or not the display signon info sysval is set. Also, iSeries Access 5250 by default is 14 days but can be turned down via the control panel settings. Also, now would be a good time to implement security for length, repeating characters, and repeating instances. Justin C.

We currently don't force users to change their passwords every x # of days but we would like to begin doing that..If I were to change the system value to make it mandatory to change every 60 days,would there be a warning message prior to the 60th day and how far in advance does it come if there is one?
