Is there ANY way to validate an AS400 login which does not count
in the way down to disabling the account?

Why would that be valuable? The whole point in failures leading to disabling, is to protect the system. Would not eliminating the effect, just open the system to attack.?

A similar effect could be achieved by use of the request to CHGSYSVAL QMAXSIGN *NOMAX; albeit highly discouraged, for the same reason alluded in the above questions. In so doing, although the number of failures is tracked, no amount of invalid requests would ever have the account\*USRPRF becoming disabled due to the failed attempts to validate. There is no equivalent MAXSIGN() parameter associated with each *USRPRF object to effect any granularity :-( nor to members of a group\*GRPPRF.
