Subject: RE: Password Validation API


> I don't know of any API which will verify a user ID/password. Maybe someone
> else does

Here is an MI-program to check User ID/Password.
If you don't have an MI-compiler front-end, email me
and I'll send you a save file with the program.

Call it with three parms:
1: userid char(10)
2: password char(10)
3: result char(1)   ,  returns "Y" if password is OK, else "N"

You must be authorized to retreive the encrypted password.
The program works by encrypting the password you give
it and comparing it with the encrypted password retrieved.
