Password expired using the Web interface

Products

• Spool

Issue/Introduction

If a user has a password expired, the CA Spool Web interface is unable to intercept this situation and always re-proposes the userid and password, it should instead ask to enter the old and new password.

 

Environment

Release : 12.0 14.0

Component : CA Spool

Resolution

The ability to detect that the password of the userid is expired is a web server configuration. In this case the IBM HTTP Server (IHS). Information on how to configure IHS can be found in the link below:
