Joe, None of the QPWDxxxx system values apply to DST/SST passwords. There are DST settings in V5R1 and V5R2 that are used to control DST/SST passwords. See http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/index.htm?info/rzamh/rzamhpwpolicies.htm (Password policies for service tools user IDs ) in the V5R2 Information Center for details. (I do not know if this article is also in the V5R1 Information Center.) When you use DES encryption for the DST/SST passwords it appears that the maximum password length is 8 characters but using SHA encryption causes the maximum length to be 128 characters.
