Given the information you seem to have available it sounds like you have a
pre-V5R1 version of the Signon Server LIPI document.  You need to order a
more up to date level of the LIPI documentation.

Thanks Patrick,

I do send a seed request of 28 bytes at the beginning, but the seed reply
does not contain any QPWDLVL bit. Can you please give a sample showing how
identify the QPWDLVL bit or any reference that can help here?

I am using the following 28 bytes Host Seed Reply structure:
{Length(4)|Header ID(2)|Server ID(2)|CS Instance(4)|Correlatio
ID(4)|Template Length(2)|Reply ID(2)|Primary RC(2)|Secondary RC(2)|Host
Seed(8)}

Thanks
N.Khoury

The TN5250e protocol lacks any way for the client to know when to send SHA
or DES.    This is because the password substitute protocol you are
referring to was invented for use only with Client Access/iSeries Access
bypass-signon.  Since that client requires a license, it's already made
other connections/flows to the iSeries and discovered the host password
level along the way.


The current solution/hacks are:
- make a seperate connection to any iSeries Access server and send the seed
flow (28 bytes), the returning host seed flow (28 bytes) also contains the
QPWDLVL bit.   Then you can cache this or discover it each time.
- require all iSeries to move up to SHA
- use kerberos instead
