PASSWORD

   Changes a password or system password. Also, can establish a
   secondary password or system password, or remove a secondary
   password.

   A user password can contain up to 32 alphanumeric and special
   characters. Unless your system manager has set the PWDMIX flag
   in your authorization account record, the only special characters
   permitted are the dollar sign ($)  and underscore (_). Without
   the PWDMIX authorization, all lowercase characters are converted
   to uppercase before the password is encrypted. For example,
   "eagle" is the same as "EAGLE."

   If you have PWDMIX authorization, you can specify uppercase and
   lowercase alphabetic characters, and you can use any special
   characters in the printable character set. However, avoid using
   characters that have special significance for layered products
   that accept passwords. For example, a double quotation mark (")
   would be unacceptable in a password in a DECnet access control
   string.

   See the qualifier descriptions for restrictions.
