Rob, Phil,

Well, OK, I suppose I can see that knowledge of user IDs could be considered
a "vulnerability".  To most IBM midrangers, this would be considered status
quo.  Maybe I just find it strange that this is news.  After all, doesn't
every AS/400 have a QSECOFR (and other IBM-supplied) profiles?

In consideration of the userID=password scenario, the vulnerability is the
person(s) managing the system, IMO.
