Hello IBM Listers, Got an interesting problem that I would like to know how we can avoid. Our Help Desk users TSO accounts have the SPECIAL ATTRIBUTE so they can reset passwords and define new users. These TSO accounts are not defined to CICS but every once in awhile one of them will try to login to CICS using their TSO account and after messing up their password 3 times the system puts out an ICH302D message asking if we want to REVOKE them or let them try again (we REVOKE), this message waits for a reply and while it is waiting CICS hangs until a reply is given. We thought about defining their TSO accounts to CICS but that does not help if they actually do mess up their password. We thought we could do it with RACF but RACF doesn't check any authorization until "after" the user successfully signs on so we would still get the ICH302D message.
Does anyone else run into this problem? Is there a way we can get around this problem? We thought about having MSGTABLE do an automated response but there could be times when we don't want to have the user REVOKED.
