Re: AS400 user password

["William Washington III" <w.washington@xxxxxxxx>]

They took that gaping security hole away in the System/38 days!  I don't
believe that the AS/400 has every had unencrypted passwords on the system.
If someone forgot their password, just set it to the user profile name and
set it expired, so the user is forced to change it when they log in again.
