Answers from Giovanni:
1- January 10th, 2006 WEBSECURE release just was added the RST
DEV('/qsys.lib/websecure.lib/websecure.file') OBJ(('/websecure')) line that
was missing in the INSTALL program
2- Validation list entries can just be accessed via API's. This was the
reason for writing the Validation List Utility "websecure/wrkvldl" (see page
http://www.easy400.net/websech/vldlut.mbr ). To retrieve a validation list
entry, you may use module "wrkvldle" included in the utility.
Suggestion for incorporating validation list security to an existing
application:
- have a "user" database file, keyed on the usernames (the same used in the
validation list).
- have it maintained through the same program that maintains the validation
list
- in the "user" database files have other fields such as name, department,
address, etc.. Flag fields specifying the authorized applications the user
may access, may further help you in implementing other security checks.
Obviously never add a field containing the user password, it would be
against ... security.
