Re: GETUSERNAME

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm looking at SSO using NAS and EIM - I also have a scenario where I 
need to find the Windows principal from the iSeries user profile. I just 
dug into some of the APIs - it looks as if there's not a single API to 
get the source from a target. I might be mistaken, am asking support 
about that.

But I think a combination of the eimGetAssociatedIdentifiers and 
eimListAssociations APIs can do the trick. There are probably a couple 
assumptions, of course, like 1-to-1 associations only. In our case, that 
would be a necessary assumption.
