Scary is right!  From an auditor's viewpoint, the generally recommended best
practice setting is *FRCSIGNON.

If you set sysval QRMTSIGN to *SAMEPRF, and then in Client Access Express
(v5r1) go to Communication>Configure and then select "Bypass Signon". Then
you are able to exit your sessions and sign right back in with the user
profile provided in the windows logon box of CAE.

It's that simpe, but it's also that scary...

Check the system value qrmtsign which controls the auto-signon feature of
5250 sessions.

 Remote sign-on or session

     *FRCSIGNON  All remote sign-on sessions are required to go through
                 normal sign-on processing.

     *SAMEPRF    When the source and target user profile names are the
                 same, the sign-on may be bypassed for remote sign-on
                 attempts.

     *REJECT     No remote sign-on is allowed.
