Change Password (ttstpchangepw)

	Change Password (ttstpchangepw) Use this session to change your operating system password for the LN server. The session prompts for the current password and then prompts for the new password twice. This password is only applicable for LN environments with blogin or rexec authentication. This password is not applicable for environments with SSO (IFS integration). The criteria for creating and replacing passwords depend on your organisation's password policy. For details about the password policy, contact your system administrator. For more information on passwords, see LN user password (OP). Note Press Tab after you specify data in a field. This goes for all fields. The session checks whether your user account is used to log on to a remote system. If so, the corresponding password in the Remote User Data (ttaad201) table is updated automatically. Only run this session on a Master Application Server (MAS). If you run this session on an application server (AS), only the password in the remote user data on the AS is changed. The password on the MAS is not updated. As a result, you cannot log on to the MAS anymore. Relation with passwd command The session sends the following parameters to the `passwd` command in the UNIX operating system of the LN server: `old password`- `new password`- `new password` If the `passwd` command expects different input parameters, an error message is displayed. The input parameters expected by the `passwd` command depend on the UNIX version and on your UNIX login code. Errors may occur, for example, in the following situations: The LN server has a trusted HP operating system. The `passwd` command asks additional questions and therefore expects additional input parameters. You are logged in as user root. The `passwd` command only expects the following input parameters: `old password`- `new password`. To find out if an error is caused by a parameter mismatch, start a UNIX shell and run the `passwd` command. In this way, you can see which input parameters are expected. Current Password Enter your current password. If you enter an incorrect password, the session prompts you again. New Password Enter your new password. Re-enter New Password Enter your new password again. If the two entries of the new password do not match, the session prompts you again.
