In the July 2006 issue of System iNews there was an article "Watching for 
Messages Made Easy" which monitored for a specific user profile being 
disabled due to the number of invalid password attempts, and then 
re-enabling that specific user profile.  The article provided examples in 
CL, RPG, COBOL, and C.  The article is based on the V5R4 message watch 
capability of i5/OS.

Re: [Security400] Disabled Userids






The system value rules for # times bad password and what action
are global. But you can in the profile set this "batch-only" profile
to not expire to avoid an expire problem.
Set password to expired  . . . .   *NO
If it is "batch-only", then how did you hit this problem?
