The  Change  Signon  Error Text  tool  allows  changing  of  the  error
message text  for the two invalid signon  messages.  CHGSGNERRT changes
the  text to  a common  value.  The  default text  is 'Invalid signon.'
The RSTSGNERRT  command  restores  the  message text  to  the  original
values if needed.

Supplying  less information  is more  secure than  the  system messages
which  describe the  specific error such  as 'Password  not correct for
user profile' or 'User name does not exist'.

The message IDs changed are CPF1107 and CPF1120.

You must have *ALLOBJ special authority to use CHGSGNERRT.

The text  of the  message may  be changed  to  meet your  requirements.
The default would be:

             CHGSGNERRT ERRTXT('Invalid signon.')

The  CPF1107  and  CPF1120  messages   would  be  changed  to  'Invalid
signon.'.   The  SECMSG file  would  be created  in TAASECURE  with the
text of the original messages.   The RSTSGNERRT command may be used  to
reset the messages to the original values.

Recovery in the event of error
------------------------------

In  the event  that the  SECMSG  message file  becomes  damaged or  the
messages cannot be found, the basic text could be entered as follows:

             CHGMSGD   MSGID(CPF1107) MSGF(QCPFMSG)
                         MSG('Password not correct for user profile.')

             CHGMSGD   MSGID(CPF1120) MSGF(QCPFMSG)
                         MSG('User &1 does not exist.')

CHGSGNERRT escape messages you can monitor for
----------------------------------------------

None.  Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.
