Re: Connect - Password

Raul, I see the same thing (in interactive SQL, right?). It is interesting that back on the main SQL screen this is what is in the history:

CONNECT TO S10AAAAA USER VERN USING ''

so they suppress the password here.

If you were to enter this command, not using the prompt, you'd have to put it in the clear, as there is no way to non-display a portion of a field. But it'd be sensible to non-display the password in the prompt. I suggest a call to IBM, asking fo a design change.

Help..

When I conncet from an interactive session to a remote server, the system ask for my passwor, and it types it - it is not hidden.

Is there some configuration command to avoid showing the password?

This is my "problem screen"
