WE have cases where people forget their passwords, I would say 2-3 times a
week i have to reenable.
Can there be a CL job the user would run that would do the enable for them?
would they need special authority to run such a cl?
My first question is if they can't sign on, how would they run the CL? A
company I used to work for had a network solution that was able to re-enable
or change a user password by the user on any registered system in the
network. I had to create a profile on the my system that had *secadm special
authority. The user had to be signed into the network, but they could go to
the page, enter new password for whatever system(s) they selected (they
could only see systems they had authority on). The application would then
sign on to the appropriate system(s), and reset the password. I think that
was a home-grown solution.
We also gave some of our other IT (non-iSeries experts) staff *secadm
special authority so they could reset passwords.
We also had a third party software app that ran on the iSeries. If a user
called me, I would select their user id, it would generate a new password,
email it the users work email, change the profile to that password as
expired, so it would require changing when it was first used.
