A sample hook for users of IBM® Rational® ClearQuest®.

This item was originally published in August 2003 and refers to Rational ClearQuest v. 2002.

NOTE: This hook is presented only as an example of how to customize your use of IBM Rational ClearQuest. It has not been formally tested and is not supported by IBM.

Description

In Rational ClearQuest 2.0 (hereby known as CQ) and prior versions, there is no password policy that would enforce the characteristic of the password in length and content. As such, the user could set their CQ account with no password or with only a simple password. This technote will help you implement a check to enforce the password policy that you would like to set up.

Script Language: VB Script

ClearQuest Version: 2002

Submittor:Hoo Chuan Wu
