ALLOWMIXEDPWD

Enables the use of mixed-case passwords on zOS 1.7 and higher:
 

zOS 1.7 and higher allows passwords to be upper case, mixed case or mixed number.  If the system is configured to use mixed case or mixed number passwords, the ALLOWMIXEDPWD confguration parameter must be set in the CONNX CNXPARMS file on the server.

 

To allow mixed case passwords, set:

 

ALLOWMIXEDPWD=1

 

To disable mixed-case passwords, set:

 

ALLOWMIXEDPWD=0

 

Default = 1 (allow mixed-case passwords)

 

Environments: Server, zOS only

Configuration: CNXPARMS Settings; ALLOWMIXEDPWD=<0,1>
