Rép. : Re: Multilanguage support questions

Unfortunatly, we use PC, laptop, citrix session, thin client .... to
connect. We also use telnet from another system I so we can not use the
workstation to route the job.

thanks for the idea.

Is it possible to know in advance which terminals will be used by which
users? If so, the normal approach would be to allocate the terminals to
different subsystems and then SGNDSPF and SYSLIBLE values of the
subsystem to meet your language requirements. This should cause the
signon screen and system generated messages to appear in the appropriate
language (though I don't have a system to test on).

Hello all,

I am faced with a problem to which I don't see any obvious solution.

On our system I we support both french and english speaking users.

We use the jobd to make sure that the users see the display files of
our applications in the appropriate language.

When they log on, we use their initial program (INLPGM) to change the
system part of their library list to make sure that the appropriate
QSYSxxxx library is first so that the see IBM displays in the
appropriate language (Ex: WRKSPLF).

So far so good.

But when their password expires (Because of SOX, they must now change
their password every 90 days), they get a screen that informs them
that
their password as expired and that they must change it. This screen
appears in the language of the system, so if the system is french, the
english users do not understand and if the system is in english, the
french do not understand.

It seems that the screen used to prompt a new password is called
before
the user initial progam so we have not yet changed the order of the
QSYSxxxx library.

We are looking to either:
1. find a way to display the password expired screen in the
appropriate
language
2. override this display with one of our own that would be bilingual

I hope my explanation are clear.

I will appreciate any suggestion

Thanks
