You can always just set their password to whatever you want, and then when they call you because they disabled themselves by typing in their password wrong 3 times you can just tell them that they will have to create a new one.... and then tell them they should make it something easy to remember this time

I had thought of that, but since I give them enough grief from time to time that I wouldn't.

When I was B4P's age, many many many wonderful years ago, I used give them their new password:
for english users: notforget
for afrikanns users: vergeetnie
They didn't forget it again soon

haha, I wish we could do that. We just have to default it to the same as their username...that way they SHOULD get it right the first time

I called IBM and asked. They said the password is encrypted and not stored in the same table as the user profile information. They said that it is not even stored in what would be known as a table. They wouldn't tell me where it was because the support techie didn't know.

I Don't suppose it's in the QSECRET library then ?
