Don't do this. Use passwordaccess generate and let the server/client change the password periodically. That is what happens. Don't try to automate something that is already automated by the product.

The alternative is that the client / server session will have a TCP/IP communications failure as the password will not be recognized. This of course is providing you have password access set to generate in the client options file, and registration set to closed. Has this changed? I believe this is true as of version 3.1 of ADSM, but since installing and running TSM 4.2.1.7 I haven't tried it.
