Add a Change Password Link to the Password Services CGI

The link to the Password Change Request form is:

<a href="/siteminderagent/pwcgi/smpwservicescgi.exe?SMAUTHREASON=
34&TARGET=<URL_of_Protected_Web_Page_After_Password_Change>">Change Password</font></a>

where <URL_of_Protected_Web_Page_After_Password_Change> is the URL of a protected Web page to which users are directed after they change their password. For example, http://server.myorg.org/AfterPasswordChange.html.

Note: Adding this link to an unprotected page allows all users to change their own passwords. The URL to which users are directed after they change their password must be protected; otherwise the password change fails.

In addition, SMAGENTNAME must specify when the FCCCompatMode is set to NO.

For example, if you have FCCCompatMode set to "NO", specify the SMAGENTNAME in your link, as follows:

Change Password Link is:

"<a href="/siteminderagent/pwcgi/smpwservicescgi.exe?SMAUTHREASON=
34&SMAGENTNAME=$$SMAGENTNAME$$&TARGET=$TARGET$">Change Password</font></a>"
