Well, signing in with a specific user ID and password depends on the CL
command.
For example, suppose you want to use the RTVUSRPRF command. The
RTVUSRPRF command requires *READ permission for other user profiles. The
NOBODY profile does not have *READ permission for other user profiles.
If you want to leave the NOBODY profile at its default settings, and you
want to use the i5_command for RTVUSRPRF, then you need to sign in with
a user ID and password that has *READ permissions for other user
profiles.
You can always have a user sign in with their own user ID and password,
then pass *CURRENT as the user profile on the RTVUSRPRF command.
There are other CL commands that require specific permissions as well.

Mike,
How about the i5_connect that is in mentioned in this thread?
Here is the example from the user guide:
$conn = i5_connect("1.2.3.4", "MYUSER", "MYPWD");
if (!$conn) {
die(i5_errormsg());
}
Why would the example have a hard-coded user name and password? Who
would do
that?
I am not picking on ZEND, this seems to be the norm. Every example is a
'hello world' example.
Yet taking that to a practical step is where the blood sweat and tears
come
in.
So where do I go from there to find out how to have the user key in
their
user id and password?
Mr. Google and forums like this, I guess. But sometimes when you go to
Mr.
Google, you find that the examples out there are not correct.
Ok, I am done ranting. Thanks for reading this.

Tom,
Have you tried the Zend Core for i5/OS User Guide? It is located here
and
there are many examples:
http://www.zend.com/topics/Zend-Core-User-Guide-i5OS-V261.pdf
Whether you consider them "good" or not is another discussion :-)
Also, which i5 functions do you have questions about? I have sample
code on
many of them and can provide if desired.
Regards,
Mike
