You have a password that goes with your User ID (your RACF ID) and a password that goes with your NCAS ID. The first time you access the system, you will use passwords that have been provided for you.
These passwords should be changed immediately. You will be prompted to change the password for the RACF ID every 90 days; however, once you change the password that goes with your NCAS ID, you will not be required to change it again (unless you choose to change it).
