setting password for user

hi..
I create new 'DB User' from Control Center. How do I set the password
for this new user? Or, the only way to do this is to create a new OS
user with the same username? If so, can I still connect as this new
user to db2? (what's the password?)

Thanks a lot!

The user has to exist on the host O.S. The host O.S. also manages the passwords. DB2 does not do that.
