    Admins,
            
            I am in the planning process to convert a Tru64 UNIX 5.1 system from
    BASE security to ENHANCED security. Now, I have a lot of accounts that do
    not have passwords associated with them and I know that ENHANCED security
    supports null passwords. My question is after I convert to enhanced
    security will I have to remove the password field or will it just keep the
    passwords null? I will summarize.

    TIA,
