Here's a pedantic point: RACF doesn't actually know what the user's password is -- thank goodness. RACF can only determine whether a particular password or passphrase string mathematically corresponds to the hashed value (derived from previous input) that RACF stores. True, good hashing functions minimize collisions, and RACF uses good hashing functions. I echo the other poster's cautions. - - - - - - - - - - Timothy Sipples I.T.
