Question: Sage X3 Console password length

SUGGESTED
Posted By

Hi,

I got requested by a client to enforce 30+ characters password.

As far as I know, Sage X3 console is crippled at 20 characters only (from Print Server, not sure if changed or not) with the rest truncated or ignored outright.

How do I resolve this issue?

Sage X3 v12p32's Console.

    Each component that the console configures has different password limitations/requirements. For the print server, we used to manage it from the these two files

    • <drive>:\Sage\SafeX3\PrtSrv\tools\ADXADMIN\xrepositorydatatypes.xml
    • <drive>:\Sage\SafeX3\PrtSrv\tools\ADXADMIN\xrepository.xml 

    In these files you can see a section that looks like the following where 250 represents the length: 

    <datatype id="password">
    <type>A</type>
    <format>KX:250X</format>
    </datatype>

    If yours is less than 250 you might try and bump it up. I've done no testing on this so you be careful.
