I'm installing z/VM 5.4 with Dirmaint and RACF (and this time "following the book" as opposed to my own methods).
I did copy the CONFIGRC SAMPDVH as DATADVH and DIRMAINT sees it. So, it should have all RACF enablements. MAINT is defined as a LOGONBY user and is logged on BY BUELENSC. When I issue DIRM NEEDPASS NO in MAINT, DIRMAINT prompts me for MAINT's password: - I'd say it should prompt for BUELENSC's password (I am not supposed to know MAINT's password when using LOGONBY) - So I enter BUELENSC's password and RACF rejects it. Seems that the query DIRMAINT passes to RACF indeed wants indeed an authentication as MAINT: OPERATOR gets ICH301I MAXIMUM PASSWORD ATTEMPTS BY SPECIAL USER MAINT Is this supposed to work? -- Kris Buelens, IBM Belgium, VM customer support
