Hi!
As we known, must use more than one upper case to setup password except
in case of all number and the password is minium 5 digits.
Then, Customer want to use all lower case and just 5 digits.
Customer said the problem of security was trifling.
thanks

The base system security will accept an all lower case password if you type it often enough. It might also accept shorter passwords, but I tend not be *that* insecure... | |||||

Unless you have set up Enhanced Security, your system is
running Base Security. If you want to know more about setting
up security features on a system you should read the Security
manual.
All that .1 is saying is just keep entering the desired password
over and over, the system may eventually accept it.
