    Sets the password encryption algorithm for a user. The keyword
    VMS refers to the algorithm used in the operating system version
    that is running on your system, whereas a customer algorithm is
    one that is added through the $HASH_PASSWORD system service by
    a customer site, by a layered product, or by a third party. The
    customer algorithm is identified in $HASH_PASSWORD by an integer
    in the range of 128 to 255. It must correspond with the number
    used in the AUTHORIZE command MODIFY/ALGORITHM. By default,
    passwords are encrypted with the VMS algorithm for the current
    version of the operating system.

    BOTH        Set the algorithm for primary and secondary
                passwords.

    CURRENT     Set the algorithm for the primary, secondary, both,
                or no passwords, depending on account status. CURRENT
                is the default value.

    PRIMARY     Set the algorithm for the primary password only.

    SECONDARY   Set the algorithm for the secondary password only.

    The following table lists password encryption algorithms:

    Type        Definition

    VMS         The algorithm used in the version of the operating
                system that is running on your system.

    CUSTOMER    A numeric value in the range of 128 to 255 that
                identifies a customer algorithm.

    The following example selects the VMS algorithm for Sontag's
    primary password:

    UAF>  MODIFY SONTAG/ALGORITHM=PRIMARY=VMS

    If you select a site-specific algorithm, you must give a value to
    identify the algorithm, as follows:

    UAF>  MODIFY SONTAG/ALGORITHM=CURRENT=CUSTOMER=128
