Karl,
You'll need to write a password user exit to implement your
requirements. It sounds like your PASSEXIT EXEC is the file to modify.

Subject: Password Requirements - VM:Secure
The government has proclaimed new password requirements which are: at
least
eight characters in length, alphanumeric (at least one of which should
be a
capital letter) and special characters. I have the latest VM:Manager
release (2.8, I think). I can't find this anywhere in the documentation
CD
that came with this release but will the latest VM:Secure force users to
these above password requirements or do I have to write a "front end"
script to be legal? There's a file on VM:Secure's 191 disk called
PASSEXIT
EXEC which does some of this (pw length and reuse control) on our
current
release (2.5A) and I figure this is the EXEC which will need to be
modified
to do the new stuff if it's even possible.
Thanks in advance for any info!
