ibm131/ibm141/ibm142/ibm15 as well as the sun jvms. Please look at this patch. 
Thanks.

> Currently the network server has support for the following security mechanisms
> 1) USRIDONL (userid only),
> 2) USRIDPWD (clear text userid and password),
> 3) EUSRIDPWD (encrypted userid and password).
> Thus the #3 encrypted userid and password security mechanism is secure with 
> respect to the userid/password sent across the wire.  Currently there is no 
> way to setup the network server to ensure that it accepts connections coming 
> in at a certain security mechanism.   It seems reasonable & useful to have a 
> server want to accept connections from clients with a particular security 
> mechanism (e.g  lets say encrypted userid/password and reject usridpwd ie 
> clear text userid and password)
> This jira will add support for this by adding a property to enable the server 
> to be able to accept connections from clients with a certain security 
> mechanism.
> --------------------
> I actually couldnt find if a rank was given to the security mechanisms in the 
> drda spec.  If it were so, then maybe a property for setting the minimum 
> security mechanism accepted by the server would be appropriate.
