(We suffer a corporate standard that user ID _shall_ be (truncated) surname plus first initial, slight flex allowed, only to avoid collisions. Guess what.) Is there any option to allow use of the encrypted UID, which is relatively stable? Open Systems admins made the rule; they're not burdened with DSN prefixes. (Actually, the rule hasn't been enforced on mainframes; so far we're under the radar, but what if?)
