If you have z/VM 5.2, CONFIGRC SAMPDVH activates a new set of exits that 
work closely with RACF.  In prior versions of DirMaint, you can use the 
PASSWORD_CHANGE_NOTIFICATION_EXIT to set the RACF password via RAC 
ALTUSER. Also look at COMMAND_BEFORE_PROCESSING exit if you want to stop 
the DIRM PW altogether.
