Hi Jake

I suspect two things have happened

1. The Console device got varied off
2. The QSECOFR profile got disabled.

If you have am emulation session check if DSP01 is varied off, this will
probably be the console device. Vary it on.

Once DSP01 is varied on try connecting the LAN console again and you should
get a session. If you can connect the console then it should still let you
sign on as QSECOFR is never locked out at the console device.

If you get back on create yourself a new user profile so you aren't using
QSECOFR.

If you've forgotten the QSECOFR password then it's time to do a manual IPL
and set major system options....

Regards
Evan Harris

When I try logging in using the 5250 emulator, it says that QSECOFR has been
disabled.

Is there a way to enable this profile?

Jacob,

I highly recommend attending some education sessions at the upcoming
COMMON Conference. See www.common.org for a list of sessions, many of the
people on this list are speakers at the conference. From your list of
questions, I can see you are very smart but your iSeries knowledge is enough
to be dangerous :)

The User profile password and the SST/DST password are entirely
different. Now, what might have happened is you were on a signon screen and
your console was varied off due to hitting the max number of invalid signon
attempts. Do a WRKSYSVAL QCONSOLE to see what the device for the console
is, and then vary on that device.

Remember your DST/SST password is case sensitive, and your user
profile password is by default not case sensitive (unless you changed to 128
character passwords). You can always reset your DST QSECOFR password to the
default if you are on QSECOFR and issue the command CHGDSTPWD *DEFAULT.

Subject: Locked Out?

Hello,

So I opened my op console today and tried to login, had to change the DST
password, but that apparently is different than the profile password.

Logged into op console, got the profile login screen.

Entered my QSECOFR profile name and password from the change step earlier.
No good. Got a message about some varies of something.

Okay, so I tried another password that I thought that I had changed the
QSECOFR password to yesterday, but that was not correct.

Another attempt didn't work and a persistent varies message on the screen.
Grrr.

Disconnect from opcon and re-connect. Now where there was a profile login
screen, there is just a blank screen. The DST login password works fine, but
I am not prompted for a profile login.

Is there some timeout that I have to wait for the system to be able to login
again, or am I totally locked out of QSECOFR?

Thanks

-- jake
