TPX New password phrase re-verification only allows 1 attempt.

Issue/Introduction

When signing on from the TPX sign on screen, only one attempt is allowed before the process is restarted.

Wondering if there is some configuration that can be done to remedy this. 

Environment

Release : 5.4

Top Secret

z/OS

Resolution

TPX only allows one attempt then the process is restarted. This is the correct behavior in TPX.

When the re-verification does not match the initial new password phrase TPX will clear out the userid field and the cursor is positioned at the userid field.

This is "Best Security Practice".
