Administrative password ....?

[Amr Omar]

when changing password in jde the new password follow some rules
one of this rules is the new password not in previous 10 password (jde store the tens password and check the the new password not in this list)
there is a way to configure this rule to be open (0) or (1)

This is controlled at system level by the system value QPWDRQDDIF. In
your case it is apparently set to "5". Valid settings are as follows.

0=Can be the same as old passwords
1=Cannot be the same as last 32
2=Cannot be the same as last 24
3=Cannot be the same as last 18
4=Cannot be the same as last 12
5=Cannot be the same as last 10
6=Cannot be the same as last 8
7=Cannot be the same as last 6
8=Cannot be the same as last 4

Remember that this is at system level, and changes will affect
everyone, not just you. There are a number of system values beginning
with "QPWD..." that control how password validation is implemented,
and these are worth studying if you want to understand password
security better.

The checking against previous passwords is bypassed, incidentally, if
the password is changed through the CHGUSRPRF command. If you have
command entry and sufficient authority (*SECADM I believe) you can use
this to override much of the system-enforced checking.

I haven't a clue. As you posted your question to the World list I
quite reasonably assumed you were talking about World. Try reposting
your question in the OneWorld list and you should get a relevant
answer.
