Subject: RE: AS400 Automatic Sending of New Password?
If you can encrypt a password on SYSA and store it and use it on SYSB
(and you can) then the last 32 passwords would not be a requirement.
And that's the basis of the dictionary attack. IIRC, the same password
will always encrypt (likely a hash) to the same value. It has to if I
can move the encrypted values between machines. Therefore I build a nice
table of plaintext to encrypted/hashed passwords and read it backwards.
