RE: CA/400 Password - At Startup

[Ken Slaugh <ken.slaugh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The IBM CA/400 Web Site has a download on the Developers Corner that I
highly recommend. I use it to entirely automate the CA logon at startup.
Find it at http://www.as400.ibm.com/clientaccess/cadev.htm

It's call LOGONUSR.ZIP

Download it, put a copy of the LogonUsr.exe in your windows/system folder.
Then create a LogonUsr.BAT to execute LogonUse.EXE and pass the UserID,
Password and System Name.

TIP: Use @ECHO OFF in the first batch command line to hide the logon.

Subject: CA/400 Password - At Startup


We recently upgraded from 5763-XD1 V3R1M3 to V3R2M0.

Every CA user has a Network Printer assigned.  One of the changes made
is that the user's AS/400 password is no longer requested at startup,
instead it is requested when some AS/400 resource is first needed.  This
is good because Windows startup is now much faster.  There is a downside
though.  If the first AS/400 resource request is starting multiple
PC5250 sessions (which is the case for every user), then the user is
required to enter name and password for each of the sessions.

Is there a way to make it only once?  Or get CA to ask for it at startup
like it used to?  I've looked through the User Guide and searched the
IBM CA web site, but haven't found anything.

Thanks for any help.
