The NetMAX interface allows users to have passwords of greater than 8 characters. However, the NetMAX interface login, the FreeBSD Unix login, and AppleShare login will accept just the first 8 characters if the password is greater than 8 characters. A Windows File Sharing login, however, requires the full password for a login.
