Re: Authenticate webusers against Validation Lists

Hi Mike.

I wrote a routine that was a relatively "generic" user
authentication process for a user to logon to a
WebSphere application using any file on the iSeries to
validate against.  It wasn't hard to do in Studio
using JDBC.

We actually use this now as a component in any of our
apps we build for customers that require validation
for a user against an iSeries file.  It eliminated the
need to regsiter all users in an LDAP, Domino or
iSeries directory which can be significant
maintenance.  In our case, our customers can let their
potential users register over the web for application
access using an id, predefined pin info etc....
