How do I turn on password security and force users to change their passwords?
Applies To
Penta for Windows
System Management
System Rules
Password Configuration
Resolution/Fix/Answer
Navigate to the Password Configuration window (System Management>System Rules>Password Configuration).
The 'Number of days before password will expire' field determines if you have password configuration enabled.
If this field is null, then users are not required to update/change their passwords.
If this field has any value, users will be forced to change their password after x amount of days. x = value of this field.
If previously this field was null, and you assign a new value, PENTA will automatically force all users to change their passwords the next time they log into Penta for Windows.
