Issue/Introduction

When trying to change a password, the user receives:

"TSS7111E New Password (Change) Invalid - Not Properly Split"

NEWPW(SW) is set and the new password contains a special character in the first position. 

Environment

Release: TOPSEC00200-15-Top Secret-Security
Component:

Resolution

NEWPW(SW) specifies that the new password must contain a special character ($, @, #) between the first and last position. 

So the special character must be in middle of the password, not the first or last character. 

For example: BIG$RED and I$AM@ME are valid new passwords because the special characters ($ and @) are between the first and last characters.
