grpparams passwd

Specifies the password required when you add a member to a group.

The original password for adding members was set when the group was created.

Do not specify a password on the command line. After entering the grpparams passwd command, you will be prompted for the new password. Neither your password nor your password confirmation will be echoed on the screen.

The password must be between 3 and 16 alphanumeric characters and is case-sensitive. Do not specify an existing user or account password.

If you enter an invalid password, you will be given a chance to correct your entry. If your second entry is still incorrect, the password routine will exit, and you must re-enter the command.
