Re: Password Length

Hi,

This depends on whether your system is set
to 'trusted' or not. If your system is not
'trusted' there is no minimum. You can have
any maximum, however the system will only
recognise the first 8 characters.

If your system is 'trusted' the minimum is
6 characters. You define the maximum
using SAM --> Auditing & Security
--> Security System policies
--> Password format policies
Scroll down to Maximum Password Length.

Re: Password Length

Hi,

There is no limit as such but as of I know System understands first eight charecters but for a trusted servers system takes only first six.
