login/min_password_lng

Defines the minimum length of the password.

Default value: 3; permissible values: 3 – 40

Until SAP NetWeaver 6.40 (inclusive), up to 8characters.

login/min_password_digits

Defines the minimum number of digits (0-9) in passwords.

Default value: 0; permissible values: 0 – 40

Available as of SAP Web AS 6.10 (Until SAP NetWeaver 6.40(inclusive), up to 8 characters.)

login/min_password_letters

Defines the minimum number of letters (A-Z) inpasswords.

Default value: 0; permissible values: 0 – 40

login/min_password_specials

Defines the minimum number of special characters in thepassword Permissible special characters are, in particular, !"@$%&/()=?‘`*+~#-_.,;:{[]}<>|and space

After SAP NetWeaver 6.40, all characters that are not lettersor digits are regarded as special characters.

Default value: 0; permissible values: 0 – 40

Available as of SAP Web AS 6.10 (Until SAP NetWeaver 6.40(inclusive), up to 8 characters.)

login/password_charset

This parameter defines the characters of which a password canconsist.

Permissible values:

·???????0(restrictive):The password can only consist of digits, letters, and the following(ASCII) special characters :!"@$%&/()=?‘`*+~#-_.,;:{[]}<>|and space

·???????1(backward compatible, default value): The password can consist ofany characters including national special characters (such as ?, ?,? from ISO Latin-1, 8859-1). However, all characters that are notcontained in the set above (for value = 0) are mapped to the samespecial character, and the system therefore does not differentiatebetween them.

·???????2(not backward compatible): The password can consist of anycharacters. It is converted internally into the Unicode formatUTF-8. If your system does not support Unicode, you may not be ableto enter all characters on the logon screen. This restriction islimited by the codepage specified by the systemlanguage.

Withlogin/password_charset = 2, passwords arestored in a format that systems with older kernels cannotinterpret. You must therefore only set the profile parameter to thevalue 2 after you have ensured that all systems involved supportthe new password coding.

Available in the standard system as of SAP Web AS 6.40.

login/min_password_diff

Defines the minimum number of characters that must bedifferent in the new password compared to the old password.

Available after SAP NetWeaver 6.40

login/password_downwards_compatibility

Specifies the degree of backward compatibility to be achieved.The default value is 1, where the values have the followingmeaning:

0

Withlogin/password_downwards_compatibility=0,passwords are stored in a format that systems with older kernelscannot interpret. The system only generates new (backwardincompatible) password hash values.

1

The system also generates backward compatible password hashvalues internally, but does not evaluate these for password-basedlogons (to its own system). This setting is required, if thissystem is used as the central system of a Central UserAdministration that systems that only support backward compatiblepassword hash values are also connected to the system group.

2

The system also generates backward compatible password hashvalues internally, which it evaluates if a logon with the new,non-backward compatible password failed. In this way, the systemchecks whether the logon would have been accepted with the backwardcompatible password (truncated after eight characters, andconverted to upper-case). This is recorded in the system log. Thelogon fails. This setting is to allow the identification ofbackward incompatibility problems.

3

As with 2, but the logon is regarded as successful. Thissetting is to allow the avoidance of backward incompatibilityproblems.

4

As with 3, but no entry is created in the system log.

5

Full backward compatibility: the system only creates backwardcompatible password hash values.

Available after SAP NetWeaver 6.40

login/password_change_waittime

Specifies the number of days that a user must wait beforechanging the password again.

Permissible values: 1 – 1,000 (unit: days); default value1

login/password_compliance_to_current_policy

Permissible values: 0 – no check; 1 – the system checks duringpassword logon whether the current password complies with thecurrent password rules and forces a password change if this is notthe case.

Default value: 0

login/password_max_idle_productive

Specifies the maximum period for which a productive password(a password chosen by the user) remains valid if it is not used.After this period has expired, the password can no longer be usedfor authentication. The user administrator can reactivatepassword-based logon by assigning a new initial password.

Permissible values: 0 – 24,000 (unit: days); Default value 0,that is, the check is deactivated

Available after SAP NetWeaver 6.40

login/password_max_idle_initial
