Alan, are you looking to understand what a HMAC is or how to use the API?

Googling HMAC AS/400. I came across the Qc3CalculateHMAC API, but the
only web page that I have found is
http://www.iprodeveloper.com/forums/aft/134541
Where Scott Klement is responding to someone's question.
Don't get me wrong, Scott has probably forgotten WAAAY more than I know.
It's just that I prefer a couple of choices for me to read and
hopefully understand If anyone can supply any more info, as always, it
would be gratefully appreciated
