Admin Alert: Changing User Passwords on the Fly
August 5, 2009 Joe Hertvik
It’s always helpful to have some CL code handy for various system functions that i5/OS administrators may need to perform. This week, I’m presenting one of my favorite administrative CL programs: code to change passwords and disable user profiles through a program call. Feel free to examine this code and use it in your shop whenever you need to deputize users without security administrator authority to change passwords. How This Code Began Every once in awhile, I need to allow selected users without security administrator authority the ability to change a user profile password or to disable a user profile. |
