Re: Allowing power users to re-enable users -- MIDRANGE-L

You can write a CL program that receives one parameter, the user profile, and calls CHGUSRPRF to change that user's password. You need to set the adopted autority to *owner, and make the owner QSECOFR or some other profile with enough authority. Then you can set the permisions to the program as public *exclude, and list the people the are allowede to use it.

It may be a good idea to also generate a log.

If you're a subscriber to iseriesnetwork, there is a command that I
published in October of 1993 that does this.  It's called something like
RESETUSER, and you should be able to download it from the iseriesnetwork
site.

Subject: Allowing power users to re-enable users
I have been getting a significant number of user re-
enables lately. Mostly
because two plus weeks after training when the people go
live they forget
their passwords. I would say 90% of the calls I have to
reset the password
and the user profile. We have a "help desk" (which is
power users of the
software) not IT people. So I want if possible, to let
them at least reset
the profile without them having *SECADM.
Has any accomplished this? If so could I get some help?

Thanks
