Could the default maximum password length be changed ???

Hi,

A very basic question...I understand that the default maximum password length in Oracle 8i is 30 characters.

Is it possible to change this database default ?? I would like it to be 128 characters. Is this possible ?

Thanks alot.

There is no default password length, there only is a maximum length which is 30 characters.

I understand that....the MAXIMUM password length is 30 characters....but could this be re-set....say to 10..or 20 or 50 or 1000 ???

Is it possible to do this ??? ....not too familiar with Oracle..thanks

Think a little...
...where are passwords stored?
a) in a system table
b) in a cookie jar
c) in hyperspace
d) all of the above
e) none of the above

...would you alter an object sitting in a system table?
a) true
b) false
c) what's a system table?
