John,

Any ideas how I can programmatically see if they are
attempting access remotely versus locally (from there
office)

by User

Could you use the initial program entry of the user profile?
Hook a program
there. program could then read a database file to detemine
if access
should be
allowed. If not, send a mesage to QSYSOPR and just signoff
the job.

If initial program is already being used, replace it with
the above
program, and
if access is permitted, call the original program that was
in the user
profile,
but is now in the database file.

Quoting John Allen <jallen@xxxxxxxxxxx>:

We have some employees that access our System i remotely
(through a VPN)



I have a request to come up with a way to allow us to
easily
enable or disable remote access by user

at any given time or day.



Does anyone have any ideas on how I can solve this
request?
Simple program? Inexpensive software solution?





Thanks



John
