RE: Integrated Web Services Server

On my V5R4 box I had to get the latest IWS PTFs because of some oddities
with returning recordsets.

I was able to deploy a service by simply specifying my a user ID. Didn't
have to mess with the password.

Not seeing much activity on the WEB400 list on this so I thought I'd try
here. I'm trying to find somebody who has deployed web services using
the new built-in server and the wizards that IBM supply to build and
deploy the components to make your RPG code a service.

In particular the wizard keeps warning to NOT use a profile with
password *NONE - but mine wouldn't work when I specified an Id that had
a password as there was no way to specify it to the resulting web
service. When queried about mine not working the IBM developer's advice
was to use one with *NONE! For me that doesn't seem to work.

IBM elsewhere on the web say that to cure a similar problem with portal,
that you should use a password with the same value as the user Id - I
tried this and it does work for my web services but the password police
will hunt me down and ...

Has anyone had experience with these tools and can comment on these
contradictory and rather odd scenarios.
