<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>You may specify
if users can (0) or cannot (1) use the same character at the same position
in a new password. If you specify the user cannot, it prevents the user from
specifying a character in a new password that corresponds to the same character
in the same position in the previous password. For example, new password DJS2
could not be used if the previous password was DJS1 (the D, J, and S are in
the same positions).</p>
<p>When the password level is 2 or 3, the test for
new characters is case sensitive. This means that a lowercase character is
not the same as an uppercase character.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Where can I get more information about this system value?</h4><p>To
learn more, go to the password system values overview topic. If you are looking
for a specific system value or category of system values, try using the i5/OS system
value finder.</p>
