Re: RACF PassTicket

I know of no such thing in Perl. You're more likely to find a piece of C-code that does the trick. I guess you already looked at the racf downloads. You can also ask questions there. If you use RACF in combination with a directory server it might be as "simple" as getting the info through a LDAP service. Perl does have several modules for that on CPAN.

Thanks, I didn't know that site. There's some really useful information there. I think I'll not be able to get a temporary password to login to FTP using LDAP. As I understand, that would require storing a password on the AIX server then letting the LDAP do the validation. If I can't find a C program that does it, I guess I'm left with coding the IBM algorithm in Perl: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v1r10/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.zos.r10.icha300/algor.htm cheers, rod	[reply]
