The example in the OS/400 Security Reference V5R1 manual points to that
as a way to add additional "checking" on a password.  
Also this appears to be a better choice, because it is executed whenever
a password is changed, not just on CHGPWD, etc.
Thanks for pointing this out.

How about using the exit point to do the validation?  See below...
	                      	Work with Registration Information
 
 	Type options, press Enter.
   	5=Display exit point 	  	8=Work with exit programs
                                                                       
                            Exit
      Exit 	                Point
 Opt  Point 	          Format 	  Registered   Text
  	QIBM_QSY_VLD_PASSWRD  VLDP0100  *YES         Validate Password

Whereas the system "supports" it, there's no way to "enforce" it.  The
only person who I know that uses it is Mary Kern, who is on this list
occasionally.

Is there a way to enforce mixed case when you are at this level?
QPWDVLDPGM
program-specification
    The name of the validation program.  This option is only valid
    if the system is operating at QPWDLVL 0 or 1.
TIA
