Device Password Requirement

 

Supported On:	Setting Label
Exchange Server 2010/2007
Exchange Server 2003

 

The Require Password (2010/2007) and Enforce password on device (2003) settings specify whether or not the device is required to enforce a security password. In NotifySync, the security password is used for two purposes: To access security option menus, and to dismiss the Inactivity Timeout pop-up dialog (see Section 3.2.8). When enabled, the device client is required to use a password which respects the enforced password strength (see Section 3.2.2) and minimum length (see Section 3.2.7) requirements. If such a password has not already been created, a pop-up window will display, prompting the user to create a sufficient password.

When the setting is disabled on the server, NotifySync will permit the user to create a password of any length between zero (0) and twenty (20) characters. If the setting is disabled after having previous been enabled, any existing password will not be affected.
