We decided to go with zOS LDAP authentication for System z HMCs and TS7700 MI access was purely because these platforms are "mainfframe" use only, so why not keep everything "mainframe centric" and we retain overall management of the environment. If we had used AD, for example, then management of that environment is out of our hands. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
