I was talking about System/38 and early AS/400 days. IBM added the exit program to do a similar task specifically because of my product. -Bob Cozzi www.RPGxTools.com If everything is under control, you are going too slow. - Mario Andretti -----Original Message----- From: mi400-bounces-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] [mailto:mi400-bounces-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected]] On Behalf Of Njål Fisketjøn Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2005 7:32 AM To: MI Programming on the AS400 / iSeries Subject: RE: [MI400] Buffer overflow and code execution on iSeries > For years I sold a product named SUSPENSE that hooked the SEPT so that when > the SysReq key was pressed, the end-user could either enter a command or > select the regular SysReq Menu options.

We replaced the SIGNOFF string in message id CPX2313 with our own command (e.g. IMDCMDE). This command duplicated the parameters of the SIGNOFF command, but added additional options; 0 (zero) or <command string>. This way one could open a command line window by pressing SysRq 900, or run the command directly by typing 90commandstring on the SysRq input line. On V5R3 I achieve this by using an exit program (exit point QIBM_QCA_CHG_COMMAND ) -- Njal Fisketjon _______________________________________________ This is the MI Programming on the AS400 / iSeries (MI400) mailing list To post a message email: MI400-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/mi400 or email: MI400-request-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/mi400. _______________________________________________ This is the MI Programming on the AS400 / iSeries (MI400) mailing list To post a message email: MI400-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/mi400 or email: MI400-request-Zwy7GipZuJhWk0Htik3J/[email protected] Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/mi400.
