Re: net user /passwordreq option ?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

That's why I'm asking this question. I see no difference using command
runas.
Both calls require a password.
By the way doest the statements "user without password" and "user with blank
password set" are the same ?

Hi,
Could someone explain me meaning of /passwordreq option ? (net user
command)
For example if I create user and select /passwordreq:no - what is the
difference ?

thanks
vilius

Have you looked in the Windows help?
(a great resource, highly recommended )

--PA

Yes of course. cite:
"Specifies whether a user account must have a password. The default is
yes."
I don't understand what is "must have"
What is the difference between user created with "yes" and "no" ?
