Re: Netserver invalid sign-on attempts

Hi Justin

I wasn't sure if you are speaking of the regular profile or the NetServer profile - the latter is not the same, and it can be disabled independently of the regular profile.

The count of invalid attempts is for the regular profile, so far as I know. Not the Netserver one.

There is a set of NetServer tooling that IBM has provided, in QUSRTOOL, perhaps. This has an option to list disabled NetServer profiles and to enable them - nothing is shown if all are enabled. There is a status display that tells the total number of invalid attempts, not per user, though = maybe it's somewhere in the system, but not revealed there.

Good old Navigator and likely the web Navigator have toolking for NetServer, too - same kind of stuff.

Cheers
Vern

Good question. The user profile shows the number of invalid sign-on attempts since the last sign-on, but I assume a successful connection via any interface will reset that. My best guess is that you'd have to check your audit journal.

I've never needed this number. Windows spams connection requests, so a single failed attempt by a user hits the 3 attempt limit and disables the user for NetServer.

Where can I see the number of invalid sign-on attempts for a user against the Netserver?
