Password Expiration

[MrToad6378]

Symposium 4.2 has a new feature where your password expires. Does anyone know how to set the password to never expire?

Hi all,
I'd also be interested in knowing this. I can't find any reference in doco's except for references to installation options and a possible relation to system policy.

Heh, even a definitive "No" would be handy

Cheers

TampaTodd, could you explain this more? What passowrd are you talking about?

AFAIK SCCS always had a 180 day expiry policy for desktop passwords, most users just change it when prompted and don't think twice about it. Different for automated apps though !

SU11 for S&C on 4.2 introduces the tick box to overcome this on a per user basis.

Does anyone know how to stop it expiring in ver 4.0?

Thanks,
Stu..

Oh course I'll come back at lunchtime. When is it? Oh thats a shame, so's mine.

In the PEP SU11C/S there is an added field when you build a desktop agent to have the password expire or not expire. This was pushed out to keep CTI apps from having to change password periodically.
