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! Karl Severson Raytheon Company
