I am trying to change a password on an Option11 mini and after entering the Level2 Pwd I am getting a prompt of 'PWD_COMP'...What does this mean and how do I get around it to chabge the Level 1 and 2 passwords?

Thanks
 
You have the latest 4.5 release!. "PWD_COMP" means password complexity. Becareful if you use it. It's there to make your system more secure by not allowing you to enter easy or previously used passwords.
I assume that you do know the level 2 password?. If so, then you will need to do the following. This bit is from part of a procomm plus script file that I've done...

PROC PSWD_COMP

; WAITFOR "PSWD_COMP" ; New prompt from V04.50 Onwards!
TRANSMIT "OFF^M"
WAITFOR "LOUT"
TRANSMIT "20^M"
WAITFOR "FLTH"
TRANSMIT "^M"
WAITFOR "LOCK"
TRANSMIT "30^M"
WAITFOR "FLTA"
TRANSMIT "^M"
WAITFOR "AUDT"
TRANSMIT "^M"
WAITFOR "LLID"
TRANSMIT "^M"
WAITFOR "INIT"
TRANSMIT "^M"
waitfor "ACCOUNT_REQ" ; New prompt from V04.50 Onwards!

transmit "CHG^M"
waitfor "USER_NAME" ; New prompt from V04.50 Onwards!
transmit "ADMIN1^M"
waitfor "NEW_PASSWORD" ; New prompt from V04.50 Onwards!
transmit "2222^M"
waitfor "CONFIRM" ; New prompt from V04.50 Onwards!
transmit "2222^M"
waitfor "ACCOUNT_REQ"

transmit "CHG^M"
waitfor "USER_NAME"
transmit "ADMIN2^M"
waitfor "NEW_PASSWORD"
transmit "4444^M"
waitfor "CONFIRM"
transmit "4444^M"
waitfor "ACCOUNT_REQ"

transmit "NEW^M"
waitfor "PWD_TYPE"
transmit "LAPW^M"
waitfor "PWTP"
transmit "OVLY^M"
waitfor "USER_NAME"
transmit "TEKTIPS^M"
waitfor "PASSWORD"
transmit "IsGreat^M"
waitfor "CONFIRM"
transmit "IsGreat^M"
waitfor "OVLA"
transmit "2 10 11 44 45 81 82 83 84 85 95^M"
WAITFOR "OVLA"
transmit "117 143^M" ; Prompt appeared from V22 Onwards!
waitfor "OVLA"
transmit "135 137^M" ; Prompt appeared from V19 Onwards!
waitfor "OVLA"
TRANSMIT "^M"
waitfor "CUST"
transmit "ALL^M"
waitfor "CUST"
transmit "^M"
waitfor "HOST"
transmit "NO^M"
waitfor "MAT"
transmit "NO^M"
waitfor "OPT"
transmit "PSCA RDBD CFPA LLCD PROD LOSD FORCD MOND^M"
waitfor "OPT"
transmit "^M"
waitfor "ACCOUNT_REQ"


By the way. The passwords are now case senstive!.
i.e. "IsGreat" etc. You can also use "LOGIN" instead of "LOGI".
You will get a new prompt "USERID?" (Which is your old login name!)

Hope that this answers your question.

All the best
