# MaxNumPasswordPerUser

The maximum number of passwords to store in IDOL Server for each user.

IDOL Server stores a list of the most recently used passwords. When a user changes their password, they cannot choose a password that is stored in this list. Set `MaxNumPasswordPerUser` to a positive integer to prevent users from changing their password back to one of their recent passwords.

If you do not want to limit the number of passwords, set `MaxNumPasswordPerUser` to `0`.
