Well yes the length of the DH KA prime in the DRDA specs is 256 bits - I talked to the Open Group some months ago to try and propose an addendum to increase the length of the modulus and allow a 512-bit (strong) prime but I was suggested to use some other and defined security mechanism as part of the DRDA specs (like encrypted connections ;-)), but I worked on strong password substitute (USRSSBPWD) which of course is quite different than 'EUSRIDPWD' scheme but at the end both do NOT send a clear password across the wire...USRSSBPWD sends the userid in clear whereas EUSRIDPWD does not.
Hi Francois, Are you planning to submit patch to add USRSSBPWD support for 10.2 ? Thanks, Sunitha.
