Andy, I don't believe you can fire filters on the password field directly. I believe it is designed yo work that way to prevent trapping and collecting passwords.
We accomplish changing passwords by using a button on the form that brings up a dialog form. Here you can prevent blank passwords if you require. This also allows is to capture who changed the password and when pacing the way to enforce password aging.

We ran into a couple of issues with added fields on the User and Group forms when we upgraded to ARS 7.0 and am a little leery making modifications for fear of future upgrade problems. Does anyone have any feelings on this? Does anyone know of an ARS 7.0 compatible utility for password management? I need to force our users to set a password since most of them do not currently have one set. >Andy L.

Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2007 13:19 To: [email protected] Subject: Password Enforcement Is there a way prompt users to change or set their password? Most of our users do not have passwords at all and we would like to force them to create one. I have not found a way to do this from reading the documentation and the cross-reference is not an option for us. I could set a temporary password for all users and ask them to change it on their next login, but I can't find a way to enforce this. Has anyone done something similar to this?
