I checked this out for 5.0 (I'm on Solaris with 5.0_2_M)....

CLI works fine:  'bpconfig -tries 0'

The GUI (jnbSA) reflects this change just fine as well.  The GUI also
allows me to change it from 0 to 1, apply, then change it back to 0 just
fine.

What Platform/Patch/GUI are you using that's not working?
