Users may change their own passwords using either the i OS command Change Password (CHGPWD) or the Toolkit command Change Password (YCHGPWD). The Toolkit command YCHGPWD will be prompted automatically by the Toolkit initial program if the user’s password expiry date has been exceeded, see the previous section.
If password logging is specified, then on a successful change of password, the old password value will automatically be added to the ‘forbidden passwords’ file.
At release V1R2 (or higher) of i OS, Toolkit password validation and logging is carried out by the Password validation program (YPWDVLDPGM) (see following) called from the i OS CHGPWD command. The i OS CHGPWD command can be called either directly or from the Toolkit display Change Password YCHGPWD.
