Validate User ID and Pwd

[ramadevi]

Hi,

We have a scenario where we need to vailidate a given user name and password by using any command in a routine or otherwise.

Currently we have designed a routine, where we try to import table definition using dscmdimport and also using dscc commands in the routine. The type of the routine is Before/after subroutine, we send the hostname,username ,password,Projectname and dsx_file_location as arguments.


The routine runs successfully for the correct username and password but user get locked when we provide the wrong username/password!

Can any one suggest if
1) There is any other way to validate user id and pwd

2) And also why the user id gets locked, sometimes the user id does not get locked even when provided with wrong id and password

Thank you
