Re: Using QSYRUPWD to write a script file

Catching up on email...
But the change password exit point could then be used to store the new
password (encrypted). Exit point is only called on CHGPWD (and it's gui
equivalents). Not on CHGUSRPRF.

Cyndi,

Have you thought of using the Encrypt data api QC3ENCDT and Decrypt data
api Q3DECDT to build your own secured storage for the user ID and
password? You could then change your RPG program to decrypt the user ID
and password when the ftp script is written.

If you don't want to create your own secured storage there are companies
out there that sell encryption solutions. Townsend Security is one that
comes to mind.

I had planned on changing it to clear the script file immediately after
the FTP process, and yes, these are hundreds of batch processes.
Currently, the user name and password are hard-coded into the RPG that
writes the script. Was looking for another way. We have just begun the
SAS70/SAE16 audit of IT. I figured that they would catch it eventually, so
I thought I'd start looking.

Thanks again.

Cyndi
