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.
