RE: Connect using EIM authentication

[Justin Taylor <JUSTIN@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It turns out, that's not exactly what I'm looking for.  iACS, NetServer and Apache all connect without any special user action (i.e. authentication is completely invisible to the user).  That's what I'm working on.  That code there requires the user to supply their Windows credentials.

Thanks

Wow, this is embarrassing.  Not only did my Google skills fail me, but so did my memory.

Thanks so much!

I see a post of yours to developerworks from 2018 - https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=fce8b333-b715-4548-8835-b322e7389acd
- it looks like you were successful then, has something changed?

I looked thru this list (https://javadoc.midrange.com/jtopen/com/ibm/as400/access/doc-files/JDBCProperties.html), but I didn't see anything.  I tried setting "prompt" to false, but the connection simply failed.
