Re: runrmtcmd with logged in user/password

Huh?

Not sure what you mean by dedicated...

If you mean the 5250 session can't be used while the interactive app is
running, you are incorrect.

If you use the PAUSE(*NO) parameter, then control returns to your session
immediately.

STRPCO
STRPCCMD CMD('notepad.exe') PAUSE(*NO)

Charles,
The major restriction for that is that it requires a client access session
to be dedicated to it and the job must be run in that interactive session.
As long as that is not a problem, your solution is ideal.

No...passwords are a one-way hash.

Well, technically there was (is?) a security hole if you had LANMAN (v1)
passwords stored for use with Netserver/QNTC.

They were quite easily to get to and to break.

That was many years ago..

If you must use RUNRMTCMD, you'll have to ask for the users password.

If you're only needed it so you can run an interactive app on the PC of

the

logged in user, then consider using Start PC Command (STRPCCMD)

STRPCCMD uses a special 5250 screen to send a remote command to the PC

via

the 5250 emulation session itself.

Only catch is you have to make sure the STRPCO command gets run in the
session before STRPCCMD will work.

I put together my own little wrapper..

pgm parm(&pCommand &pPause)
dcl var(&pCommand) type(*CHAR) len(128)
dcl var(&pPause) type(*CHAR) len(4)

strpco pcta(*NO)
monmsg msgid(IWS4010)
if cond(&pPause *EQ '*YES') +
then(strpccmd pccmd(&pCommand) pause(*YES))
else +
cmd(strpccmd pccmd(&pCommand) pause(*NO))

endpgm
