Converting to trusted system

[Dale Barnes]

When converting to a trusted system, any user whose password length is greater
than 8 characters can only log in with the first 8 characters of his former password once conversion has occurred.
Can this difficulty be overcome?

You need to use the modprpw command to set it, see attached man page for modprpw.

[Dale Barnes]

The modprpw command works after the system is trusted, correct? By then it is
too late; the user cannot use his 9-character password. I have to extend the maximum password size, then have the user change his password to his original before he can use it. What I am looking for is a way to increase the default (8 characters) upon conversion. This may not be possible. If the untrusted password scheme does not, in fact, retain all 9 characters, then I could see where this might be impossible.
