Changing AS/400 passwords -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

We have a multivendor shop (UNIX, AS/400, IBM Mainframe, NT) and would like
to develop a VB program that runs on a PC which would connect to all of
these different platforms to change a users password.

We are exploring using TELNET or FTP. 

Has anyone done this?  How would you connect to the AS/400 to just change a
password? Is there an API that could help?

If so, I'd sure like to exchange some notes....

Kenneth
