Re: Password issue? QDLS rears its ugly head

[PaulMmn <PaulMmn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Was the password entered in lower case, both on the network and the iSeries??

Is the profile authorized to itself??  Help text from The Web says, 
"...if a user profile is not authorzied to itself, a SWBSY1008 error 
is posted..."  Make sure the user profile has *OPER and *ALL DATA 
rights to itself.
