Re: Netserver invalid sign-on attempts

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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
