RE: allow numeric as 1st char of password

Make the first character a Q and the second character numeric in your
password and you will never need to enter the Q again.  If you type a number
for the first character in your password, IBM in its infinite wisdom, places
a Q in the first position.  Same goes for the user id.

Subject: allow numeric as 1st char of password


We are at QPWDLVL  0 on V5R1 and it's not allowing us to use a numeric
as the 1st character of a password.

 

Does this sysval have anything to do with that being enforced ?

if not....how (if possible) can a password start with a numeric.

 

Thanks,
