── CASESENSITIVEPW ────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
(Type: Boolean; Default: TRUE if security option CASESENSITIVEPW is TRUE; FALSE otherwise)
If the value of the CASESENSITIVEPW option is TRUE, MAKEUSER allows passwords containing lowercase characters and special characters (such as asterisks, dollar signs, and so on) to be entered without being enclosed in quotation marks.
If the value of the option is FALSE, lowercase characters are translated to uppercase characters, and special characters can be specified only if the password is enclosed in quotation marks.
If a password contains the following characters, it must still be enclosed in quotation marks, regardless of the option setting:
Character |
Example |
---|---|
Space |
" " |
Semicolon |
";" |
Comma |
"," |
Percent sign |
"%" |
Question mark |
"?" |
A quotation mark is not a valid password character.
