How do I disable an NFM-P user password?

Purpose

You can disable the password of a specific NFM-P user in order to block subsequent login attempts by forcing a password change.

Note: Disabling a user password may affect current user sessions. For example, if the user attempts to open the NFM-P client when the password is invalidated, the user may be directed back to the NSP sign-in page. The operation fails until a valid password is assigned to the user.

Steps
 
1 

Open an NFM-P GUI client.

2 

Choose Administration→Security→NFM-P User Security from the main menu. The NFM-P User Security - Security Management (Edit) form opens.

3 

Click on the Users tab.

4 

Select a user and click Properties. The User username (Edit) form opens.

5 

Select the Force User Password Change parameter.

6 

Save your changes and close the form.

The next login attempt by the user is blocked, and the following message is displayed to the operator:

Your account password has expired and must be changed.

The operator must request a password from an administrator.

Note: To enable a password that you assign, you must deselect the Force User Password Change parameter.
