Hi Gurus
We have a requirement to restrict the maximum password length in the abap systems. I could not find any parameter related to this.
I have checked few threads which talks about this issue but could not see any clear solution.
Can you please help me with it.
Cheers

Can you please elaborate on why you want to do this? What is the background for this requirement?
I only know about controls for minimum length and ways to restrict the length of generated passwords in the ABAP stack. The standard max length (although you can type beyond that as much as you like) on newer systems is 40 characters.

Hi Jurjen
We are integrating our SAP system with the existing LDAP and the max password length is one of their requirement.
Let me know if you need any more information.

This makes it look as if you want to synchronize passwords which never is a good idea. Why would you (try) to exchange/synchronize passwords over an LDAP link?

Hi Pavan,
If you are integrating SAP systems with LDAP for authentication and the authentication parameters which will take affect will be of LDAP then you need to set the password related settings in LDAP, someone in your organization who is a LDAP admin can give inputs to you.
