2.7 Step 7: Enable Universal Password

  1. Start Novell iManager.

  2. Click Roles and Tasks > Passwords > Password Policies.

  3. Start the Password Policy Wizard by clicking New.

  4. Provide a name for the policy and click Next.

  5. Select Yes to enable Universal Password.

  6. Complete the Password Policy Wizard.

IMPORTANT:If you assign a policy to a container that is the root of a partition, the policy assignment is inherited by all users in that partition, including users in subcontainers. To determine whether a container is a partition root, browse for the container and note whether a partition icon is displayed beside it.

If you assign a policy to a container that is not the root of a partition, the policy assignment is inherited only by users in that specific container. It is not inherited by users that are in subcontainers. If you want the policy to apply to all users below a container that is not a partition root, you must assign the policy to each subcontainer individually.
