RE: Long passwords in V5R2

Jim - 

I think the idea behind having a 128 character password is that it becomes a
pass phrase....

For example, my pass phrase might be: "My niece McKaylah is 7 years old"

That would be a tough one for a "crack' program to figure out....

128 character passwords can be more difficult to remember.

Hope this helps.
