Question:

I have a question about security with Client Access. Many of my users set their client access to auto-connect, so they only have to log on once or not at all to each session that they open up, this is not good because some of my user walk away from their desk and go on break or lunch and anybody can just walk up to their PC and click on client access and go right in without having to sign on. Some of my users work in payroll and accounting/finance and I don't want to have this option. Is there a way to make the users have to sign on to each session that they open up? Thanks

Answer(s):

You can also change these settings with Operations Navigator.

Open your AS/400, click the securities branch, expand it, select policies (on the left) and then right-click "Security Policy" one the right. Select "Properties".<br><br>

Under the Remote Sign-On tab, select the Telnet option that works for you.

You need to CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QRMTSIGN) VALUE(*FRCSIGNON) on the AS/400.
