password mapping restriction

Hi,

There is restriction on the maximum length of the password while connecting EP 7.0 to R/3 4.7C. Problem is when users set their R/3 passwords greater than 8 characters, In the portal personalize iview, when doing the user mapping for system access, the password is truncated if more than eight characters are entered.

Now Scenario : User / Password mapping for connectivity EP 7.0 to ECC 6.0.

Is there any restriction with password length while user mapping EP 7.0 to ECC 6.0 through Personalize Iview? Do we need to change the user mapping for system access in the portal to accept more than eight characters? If yes, could you point me in the right direction to where I can change that configuration?

Please advise.

Thanks,

John.
