long password support? make your password something you won't
forget...like for example:

thisisreally1stoopidfrickingpassword

should be fairly easy to remember 8^)

Thanks,
Tommy Holden

AND
5) at least one digit...

Don't forget #6.... "write the password down on a post-it."

I've never been a big lover of these rules as you make the password so
complicated to remember that it has to be written down. Of course, now
that you've enabled large password support it's less of an issue.

Rob -

They are trying to solve a problem that will go away after the next
password
change cycle (< 90 days). We just implemented long password support
on
the
iSeries systems, and during the interim period they want this solution
in
the event someone needs to reset their password.

My recommendation is to wait 90 days and the problem will fix
itself...

We currently have password rules in place that will require:

1) At least 1 upper-case character
2) At least 1 special character
3) No repeating characters
4) No characters can be repeated in the same position as the previous
password.

Regards,
Steve
