password

Use the password command to change the RSC password for the account to which
you are logged in. This command behaves similarly to the UNIX passwd(1)
command.
When used to change a password, RSC prompts for your current password, and if
you enter it correctly, it prompts for the new password. RSC prompts again for the
new password, and updates it if entered identically both times. For example:
rsc> password
password: Changing password for username
Enter login password:
Enter new password:
Re-enter new password:
rsc>
Passwords have the following restrictions:
They must contain at least six characters (only the first eight characters are
significant).
They must contain at least two alphabetic characters and at least one numeric or
special character; alphabetic characters can be both uppercase and lowercase.
They must differ from the user's login name and any reverse or circular shift of
that login name; for comparison purposes, uppercase and lowercase letters are
equivalent.
The new password must differ from the old by at least three characters; for
comparison purposes, uppercase and lowercase letters are equivalent.
