The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Council worth considering - FYI. We'd be using EIM/SSO if I had authority for that - it is on my development/performance review stuff to encourage setting this up.

Hi, Vern,
>>>---> private reply off-list <---<<<
Never store any sign-on information, especially passwords, in any PC files such as "macros" as this could potentially lead to a breach of security, if someone is able to read data on your PC, e.g. those macro definitions.
Why not use Kerberos and "single-sign-on" and EIM, as it is built into the IBM i OS, and available at no extra charge?
You can set it up and enable it for just yourself, or a few selected users, or you can gradually roll it out to more and more users.
Just a thought ... :-)

You raise a point I'd not originally thought of, but I have recently wondered about that. Unfortunately, this is a signon, automacro, so am a bit nervous about testing this. I think I can see what happens with another one that isn't going to disable my password if I'm wrong!
Thanks, I'll try something!
