Hello All,

I am crrently involved in design on a system on the AS/400. This is a kind
of employee database with around
1000 users. We've got a V4R2 and planning to use Servlets.

Well the problem is to manage these many users.

One idea was to have a data file with these users, authority level and
password. The problem
out here is how to encrypt the password in this datafile.

Any help, suggestions or opinions. And also if anyone has already worked on
this.
Also if someone could suggest some security features which i ought to
consider, as this database is going to be
web enabled.

Thanks in advance,
regards,
Victor Rodrigues
