Simple steps to a secure iSeries
If you're a systems manager, chances are security is one of your top priorities. With new security issues emerging on a daily basis, it can seem like you're swimming against the tide when trying to secure your system from both intentional and unintentional security breaches and threats. We've gathered some good security information in this Security Learning Guide to help you along your way. Think of
it as a security life preserver of sorts.
Undoubtedly, the iSeries is one of the most secure platforms out there, but don't be mistaken in thinking that it is untouchable. Address the basic security issues now and take the proactive steps needed to prevent your system from being compromised.

Working through a WebFacing problem
"Mathias" is running WDSc AE 5.1.0.3 and has performed the conversion process of an iSeries application. When he calls the initial program, the log-on screen appears. But when he submits the logon, he gets signed off immediately. A few Search400.com members tried to help him out. Read what they had to say, and offer your suggestions.

No jobs out there for programmers
"Don," who lives in Virginia and is in contact with user group officials and headhunters worldwide, doesn't agree with a previous salary report from Nate Viall and Associates. He says, "Evidently Nate Viall hasn't been reading any want ads lately; there just are NO ADS for iSeries programmers." We asked what your experience has been. Quite a few folks wrote in, read what they had to say about the jobs in their areas. |

The CHGSYSJOB command lets you configure system jobs
by Ron Turull
By default, all but a handful of system jobs run at a high priority. And you don't necessarily want that. Using the Change System Job command (CHGSYSJOB) you can change the run priority of some of those system jobs. |

Automated disaster recovery -- revisited
by Rich Loeber
A little more than a year ago, I wrote a security tip about automating your iSeries disaster recovery restore process. Of the many tips I've done over the last several years, none has drawn as much "fan mail" as this particular tip. Well, due to some OS/400 changes, the process outlined in the tip no longer works. This tip provides a workaround for newer OS/400 versions.
