Hi Glenn, Tom,

Why not avoid the issue and do it the other way around? Have a set of
password rules (that's what we're talking about, right?) defined in DST,
then have a new system value that says "Use DST password rules? *YES|*NO".
If *NO, the current password rules as defined in the current system values
are used. If *YES, similar rules defined somewhere in DST are used.

It is certainly possible for OS/400 to package relevant >>values in such a
