RE: Mapping problem in V4R4 Express CA

[Roger Boucher <RBoucher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We are on V4R4 also, and there is a known bug.  When you have the same user
profile handle on the AS/400 and the network, but the passwords are
different, you will NEVER get to the AS/400 files unless your QMAXSIGN
system value is set to something other than *NOMAX.  It may not be the same
situation you are having, but it got us past a problem we had.  We were
getting the same prompt you describe and it would not take the correct
password.  Until we changed our QMAXSIGN value we could only access the
AS/400 files when the passwords were the same on both systems.
