Ernie,

        The answer lies somewhere in your Security/3000 configuration file and/or
within the security profiles defined.  I am being some what generalized on
purpose.  Public discussion about how to cripple or remove security is
typically not a good thing.  That annoying "extra" password was probably
there for a reason and I would had to give a detailed public answer that
would cause other people to follow suite.

Subject: MPEX "SEC" command


Greeting tax advisors,

I had an interesting thing happen and don't know how to proceed.  I turned
off my personal password in MPEX using "SEC CHANGE ERNIE, @.@;NOPASS" and it
worked.  No longer did I have that annoying "extra" password.

I then needed to do some testing things and happily created an account
called TEST. I then tried to log into that account and MPEX asked me for my
password again.  Problem is, it wouldn't take my password.


Why did it do that?

I can log into any account except TEST and not get prompted for an extra
password.

Now, about that tax refund....
