bypass the password history setting

[tiger2000]

Dear all,

"Minimum number of unique passwords history" is set to 5 so that user can not set same passwd in the short peiord of time.

however, i wonder as the system admin, is it possible to set user's password without the "passwords history" limit?

for instance, is it possible to run :
zmprov sp user@domain new_passwd

(no matter new_passwd is in one of the password history list??)

currently, it just returned :
ERROR: account.PASSWORD_RECENTLY_USED (password was recently used)

is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks.

what if you remove that option for that particular user, change the pass, then set it back?
