Patch to implement minimum password length for SET PASSWORD (MINPWDLEN.FIX) SET ECO120 LJKilgallen 25-Oct-1982 MODULE: SETPWD Implement minimum password length for SET PASSWORD in VMS 3.0. If System logical name SET_PASSWORD_MINIMUM_LENGTH is defined to be a decimal number, the new password must have at least that many characters. Note that this patch sets a minimum only for the SET PASSWORD command. The AUTHORIZE utility can still be used for setting shorter passwords (by those with suitable privilege). If a VMS system is to be networked with a RSTS system, it may be bad to set a minimum length greater than 6 characters. Version 1.1 of DECnet/E will not support passwords longer than 6 characters.
