There is a setting on the telnet signon session to bypass the signon screen and use the same credentials as the as-signon (first signon)

Douglas,
The reason for the "Double Signon" is that IA and its predecessors first
log into the IBM as-signon server. This gives you access to other
non-workstation functions like upload/download files etc.
After authenticating to that, you then get the normal "green screen" signon
prompt. This is the Telent authentication.
Your "other" program that uses telnet only, will just give you access to
the "geeen screen" only services.

Looking at a post on google, I see that in order to stop having a double
signon with iSeries Access for Windows [IA], you need to configure IA, and
change the value of QRMTSIGN to *VERIFY. Further posts in the stream warn
of causing a SOX problem when doing that, which explains why we have the
double sign-on.

However, we also have another product (cannot provide name) that provides
a 5250 green screen signon. It appears to use a Telnet connection. Does
anyone know why this other product does not require two sign ons and the
IBM product (IA) does? Does IA also communicate via Telnet? If not, is
Telnet as secure as the connection provided by IA? Can IA be configured to
use Telnet and bypass the two screens?

We are trying to retire the other product, but the users complain about
having to sign on twice.

Any information as to how Telnet does not require the second sign on would
be helpful.

Thank you,

Doug
