Changing a password (Sybase Central)

Change the password for a user by editing the user properties.

Prérequis

Any user can change their own password.

To change the password for another user, you must have the CHANGE PASSWORD system privilege.

You cannot use Sybase Central to change the password for another user who has dual control password changing enabled (that is, their change_password_dual_control login policy option is set to ON). If you are changing your own password and you have dual control password changing set to ON, you can still change your password normally; dual control password changing is not applied.

Contexte et remarques

Passwords are case-sensitive and they cannot:

begin with white space, single quotes, or double quotes
end with white space
contain semicolons
be longer than 255 bytes in length
