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
 

Open an NFM-P GUI client.


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


Click on the Users tab.


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


Select the Force User Password Change parameter.


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.
