Re: using email address for log on

Log on to what? 5250? ftp?

If it's for ftp then you can use an exit point and log on however your
little pea picking heart desires. I wrote my own but we decided to move
to a commercial product. We now use GoAnywhere to serve FTP. I have some
outside people who log in using their email address.

5250 is a bit trickier. Normally what you do then requires some
implementation of EIM or SSO. Then you set up their IBM i account a bit
different. Read the help for chgusrprf for "Local password management
(LCLPWDMGT)"

I have a user who wants his people to be able to log on using their email
address rather than their IBM i user ID. I imagine that this is possible
but have not been able to find out how, so would appreciate some pointers
to where this is documented. This would be on a V5R4 system.

Many thanks
