Ash,

You have to pass the PSCWS.exe program a workstation configuration file.

Ash,

Insert this into your .bat file. The

C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\Emulator\pcsws.exe <path to your

.ws

file> /Q

The path to your file must be in double quotes.

Example:
"C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\Emulator\private\Session1.ws"

The whole thing might look like this:

C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\Emulator\pcsws.exe "C:\Program
Files\IBM\Client Access\Emulator\private\Session1.ws" /Q.

The /Q keeps the IBM logo splash screen from showing.

This is from the user guide installed when you install client

access.

Use this command from a command prompt to cache user ID password
information on the PC for the specified server. This, in conjunction

with

configuring a default user ID for a connection, can be used to

provide

automatic logon to a server without the need for iSeries Access for

Windows

to display a signon dialog prompt.

Syntax
To signon to a server:

CWBLOGON system /u userid /p password

To clear a specific userid:

CWBLOGON system /u userid /c

To clear all userids from a server:

CWBLOGON system /c

To clear all userids from the cache:

CWBLOGON /c

Parameters

system designates the server name for which to store the user ID

and

password information
/u userid designates the server user ID to store in the

iSeries

Access for Windows cache
/p password designates the server password associated with user

provided
/c clears user ID and password information from the iSeries

Access for

Windows cache
Notes

To cache the user ID and password for a system, the system, /u and

parameters must be specified. The system name must always be the

first

parameter. When using the /c parameter, you can clear a specific

userid for

a system, all userids for a system, or all entries in the cache.

If the password value contains embedded blanks, enclose it with

double

quotation marks. If the server is configured to support longer mixed

case

password values, ensure you specify the password in the exact case

is

defined. If the password value contains double quotes and embedded

blanks,

you need to prefix each embedded double quote with the backslash

character.

This command can be used to simulate persistent password caching.

Running

a batch file when starting your Windows operating system (containing
CWBLOGON invocations) could be used to prime the iSeries Access for

Windows

password cache allowing automatic connections to be made.

Passwords cached with this command are only remembered for the

duration of

the Windows session, and are deleted when you log off Windows.

Warnings

Because the intent of this command is to provide automatic access to

sever (i.e. no iSeries signon dialog), be sure to use appropriate

security

measures on the PC.

Use appropriate security measures in using this command from batch

files.

Invocations provide a server password in clear text format. These

passwords

would remain only as secure as access to the batch files themselves.

Recovery

The ERRORLEVEL value indicates whether this command was successful

not.

Examples

CWBLOGON system1 /u myuserid /p mypwd
CWBLOGON system2 /u myuserid /p "Case Sensitive Pwd With Embedded

Blanks"

CWBLOGON system3 /u myuserid /p "pwd with one \" embedded quote"
CWBLOGON system1 /u myuserid /c
CWBLOGON system2 /c
CWBLOGON /c
