Changing your password
If you are a registered user, you may be able to change the password you use
to access a server. In fact, you may be required by your network
administrator to change your password after a certain number of days. The
administrator may also require your password to be a minimum number of
characters to enhance the security of access to the server. Your
administrator will tell you if this is necessary.
