- At the command line type the command: SET
PASSWORD
- The system will prompt you for your old password. Once
you have typed in
your old password the system will then prompt for the new
password. You will
be prompted for the new password a second time in order to
verify it. The
password changes if the user is authorized to change this
account's password,
if the old password is given correctly, and if the new
password is
given identically twice. Otherwise, an error message
appears and the password
remains unchanged. The system also keeps a history of your
old passwords so it
will give you an error message if you attempt to use a
password that you have
used before.
