Password and Session profile options

Password profile options

SINCE PRODUCTION is SETUP with VERY high security PASSWORDS GET locked EASILY.
In a big team of developers someone might enter the old password several times and lock a username which everyone shares. After which it becomes a problem setting a new password as all the old ones cannot be reused. To fix this problem set the following profile option value to NULL.

Signon Password Case
Signon Password Custom
Signon Password Failure Limit
Signon Password Hard to Guess
Signon Password Length
Signon Password No Reuse

 

Apps Session
I also like to keep a session alive for several hours on a non production instance as I keep getting in and out of the instance. Hence I change the following profile option to 300 for 300 minutes, i.e. 5 hours.
