Re: Accessing user profiles

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

If all of your sessions are on Wintel PC's can't they just use the 
password timeouts on those?
Is there a windows policy that allows an administrator to set the timeout 
and not be overridden by the user?

Accessing user profiles






To the list,
I need a way to, after the user enters their AS400 password within a 
custom program, to verify that the password entered is valid.  I aware of 
the API to retrieve the encrypted password - is there a way to verify the 
password.

I am implementing a custom application where the Controller wants to make 
sure that if a user leaves their session signed on, that another user 
cannot sit down at the screen and start taking options.  I do not want to 
start ending the sessions based on last time a key was pressed or anything 
like that but just want to issue a prompt screen for the user's password.

Thanks...
