‘‘Alphabetic’’ includes all uppercase and lowercase letters.

Each password must differ from the user’s login name and
any reverse or circular shift of that login name.
(Corresponding uppercase and lowercase letters are
considered equivalent.)

A new password must differ from the old one by at least three
characters.

NOTE:

The login for the primary administrator is not required to follow
these conventions when making up passwords.

Re-enter password:
