I've figured out that she's hitting a road block when using a number as the leading character in her password. I want to change that sysval to allow leading numbers. I've found that if I edit that users password in her usrprf I get the error "Value for new password not allowed at password level 0." A CLUE! I change the system value for QPWDLVL (what I think the error just mentioned points to) to 2- Yet when I edit usrprf and change password I still get the "Value for new password not allowed at password level 0." Error. I just changed that sysval to 2. Does anyone think it requires an IPL for changes to take effect? Am I changing the correct system value to allow a leading number in a password?
