IBM Safenet/400 manual Setting the Required Password Type

Setting the Required Password Type

This field must be set if the TELNET Server is set to Level 3. You must enter the appropriate setting for ALL TELNET IP address controls. As of OS/400 V4R2, only a setting of 0 or 1 is available. A setting of 2, although allowed here for encrypted passwords, is only available in V5R1 of OS/400.

Valid settings are:

0– No password was received or validated

1– A clear text password was received and validated

2– An encrypted password was received (SSL TELNET only in V5R1)

•For normal TN5250 (TELNET support is VT100) you must set this to 0, since non-enhanced TELNET clients do not support this feature.

•For iSeries Access for Windows TELNET, you can use a setting of 1. However, certain iSeries Access for Windows clients do not support this, so you MUST test this at your location.

•A setting of 0 will always allow the client to connect.
