[cisco-voip] Unity 4.2 versus 4.05 sign on

[CarlosOrtiz at bayviewfinancial.com]

I got an answer from one of my partner SE's.  FYI for everyone.

<B>Symptom:</B> 
After calling Unity from a primary or alternate extension and entering an 
incorrect password, Unity reprompts the subscriber to enter their ID. 
<B>Conditions:</B> 
Seen with Cisco Unity 4.2(1) when a subscriber calls Unity from a known 
extension (primary or alternate), and enters an incorrect password. In 
previous releases, if an incorrect password was entered, Unity would 
reprompt for the password. With sign-in enhancements in 4.2(1), Unity now 
prompts for the ID if an invalid password is received. 
<B>Workaround:</B> 
None. 
The Unity DE's have reported that this design modification was to fix what 
they believed to be a security hole. This will be the expected behavior 
for Unity 4.2.1 and forward. Currently there is no plan by the Unity 
Business Unit to change this behavior or give customers access to change 
the behavior.

Unity 4.2 versus 4.05





In Unity 4.05 when a user enters the wrong password they are prompted to 
re-enter their password.  In 4.2 they are prompted to enter their 
ID(extension)  AND then their password.  Is there any way to change it to 
behave like 4.05 or is this just a change we have to live with.
