2.5.1 Complex passwords
Your SwyxWare administrator may oblige you to use a complex password. In this case, you must select a complex (strong) password each time you change your password.
Complex passwords for SwyxServer must meet the following requirements:
*The password consists at least of eight characters.
*The password consists of any characters of at least three of the four following categories:
- upper-case letters such as: [A-Z]
- lower-case letters such as: [a-z]
- Numbers [0-9]
- Special characters like e.g. periods, commas, brackets, blanks, hash tags (#), question marks (?), percent signs (%), ampersands (&).
* 
Alphabetic characters (such as: ß, ü, ä, è, ô) and non-Latin characters (such as: φ, π, β) are no special characters and are regarded as letters.
 
* 
For security reasons, it is not possible to reuse the previous password when changing the password.
 
You can change your complex password anytime you are logged in to the system. See 2.5 Changing your password.
