how terminate connection

[Drew]

Hi All:

I've got a AS400 connection question. When I first power on my
computer at work and log onto the 400, I get a small window that
prompts for my username and password to the 400. After I enter that,
Client Access comes up to the main green screen and I login from there
and everything works great.

If I subsequently sign out of the 400 session and close it, and then
start another 400 session, it comes right up to the AS400 green screen
sign in.

In other words, the very first logon is only required once per Windows
logon. I can only make the system prompt for that login again by
rebooting my PC.

With some VB programming I do, I need to be able to connect to the 400
without the system having been logged on.

So, my question is, is there anyway to "break" this very first
connection that's made to the 400 by the initial logon in the smaller
window (not green screen)?

Or is the only way to force the user to login to this again is just to
reboot?

I've tried looking under Task Manager for some process that might be
maintaining the initial connection. Don't see anything there. And
I've also looked around in Client Access for something to do the
disconnect. I can't find anything.

There is a Disconnect under the Configuration menu of the Client
Access emulator but using it does not force the next 400 session to
use the very first initial logon again.

Something must keep that initial connection alive somehow.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Drew

Start iSeries Navigator.
Select properties on the system.
Select the "Prompt every time" option in the connection tab.

Drew,

A couple of thoughts ...

You can force the system to always require a logon: in
iSeries Navigator, right-click the the connection and select
properties -> connection > signon information > prompt every
time.

You can make the system forget the entered password (and
thus make it prompt for the next connection) by executing
the command

cwblogon <systemname> /c

HTH.
Terry.

This is exactly what I needed. Works perfectly!

Thanks very much!

As I recall, in your Client Access session menu, click Connection,
Configure. Then there is a box about bypassing signon which you want to
uncheck.
