Re: VSCS PSW
Alan, I see the confusion. We have Multsess installed on MVS. That allows us to connect to all our MVS and VM from 1 terminal. Users who have to work on VM have the same logon as in MVS. Logon this way is made through CDRS. SO when a user press say 1 on MVS his logon password is propagated through SNA/VSCS, so he never sees the logo screen. He sees a line 'LOGON userid password'. It's here 'my pgm' takes the hand to make the password invisible when this line appears on the screen. Then just after the profile exec executes itself. I would upgrade to zVM530 on July and I would not be locked if this pgm doesn't work anymore. I joined the pgm as an attachement. It is BIN FIX 1024 and should be COPY (unpa after all.

If you have a pgm you want to share with me I take it :) Alain, Like Alan, I am confused. Please clarify what is it that you want to be invisible. The normal login screen has 3 lines. Userid, password command. As set up by default for as far back as I can recall the data portion of the Password line is non-display. (Non-display == invisible). Is that what you want? If so, just remove your mod and you have it. Or for some reason do you also want the word Password to be invisible? If thats what you want (Why?) you can do it by twiddling the logos. Its been a while and I don't recall exactly where, but in your SYSTEM CONFIG file there is a pointer to the logo config files. -- Rich Greenberg N Ft Myers, FL, USA richgr atsign panix.com + 1 239 543 1353 Eastern time.
