Re: Adding menu options

Brian,

I *think* the LMTCPB *YES means that they can't execute *any* command line stuff which is what I am after. I can change their passwords one by one but they would have to tell me what the new password is. Plus they have a few hundred users and it would take a while.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

I'm on BPCS 2.0(ouch, I know) To change a user PW I can (from a command line) enter CHGUSRPRF, specify user name and record a new PW. Might help you, might not.

Subject: [BPCS-L] Adding menu options

Brand new to a very old version of BPCS (it appears to be 4.05 CD?) I
was brought in on an emergency basis to a local company that had an
unanticipated change in IT resources. So am am scrambling a bit to help
them.

They wanted everyone to change their passwords and they have done so on
the Windows side of things but because some of the users have LMTCPB Y
on their user profiles they cannot change their passwords even though it
looks like they can get to a command line.

So the question is: How do I go about adding this as an option on menus
the users have access to within BPCS? Is there a program that controls
menu items and menus or is this something that requires so programming.
Or, is there a better way to handle this?

Any pointers would be helpful.
