Re: iSeries Telnet authentication

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the point of this?

Whenever I telnet to the AS/400, I want to get to my AS/400 menus under 
my profile.

If you were validating against an external LDAP, would this validation 
be prior to displaying the signon screen thus having 2 realms of 
authentication?

Hi there,

Is there anyway I can authenticate Telnet users vs an LDAP server (not the 
iSeries LDAP server)?

For ftp login I think I can use the QIBM_QTMF_SVR_LOGON exit point and then 
write a program to validate user id and password using LDAP API's.

Is there anything similar for telnet users? 

Thanks.
