Set Password Option in SAM for 11.0

Help!

Can someone explain what happened to the "Set Password" option in "SAM - users - add users" screen. It used to be there in HP/UX 10.20, and we are missing it in HP/UX 11.0.

What can we do to get that option in HP/UX 11.0. The workaround is a pain in the ....

Hi Donald,

The system will now, by default, generate a PW for you.

You have several options:

1) Use Actions -> Task Customization
to run the passwd command to generate your own new PW for users afetr adding user.

2) Use Actions -> User Templates -> Create -> Set Password Format Policies
and create a templete that will turn off all the "System Generates" options & turn on the "User Specifies" option.

Rgds,
Jeff
