IT pros more likely to suffer from stress, says new survey

[threaded]

Eh! Its always handled mixed case passwords. What platform and OS does it run on and under?

IIRC pre z/OS 1.7 it didn't handle mixed case.

I must be in the wrong job.

Shame, wrong, I run most versions of zOS from 1.2 up until the current one which is 1.7 and also OS/390 back to 2.7 and RACF uses mixed case on all of them.

We must be talking at cross purposes, pre z/OS 1.7 most everything that handled passwords converted them to upper case before passing them on to the security manager.

So you could have mixed case, but it was the same as typing the same letter combination in upper case. Which in my language means doesn't handle mixed case.

I'm available for any security problems you no doubt have.

I am afraid from a quick google search that threaded should be right.

Yet cannot prove that he wrote it himself though.

p.s. so is it that Racf always supported mixed case but the security manager didn't before 1.7?

Of course I didn't write it all, and the team changes constantly with people coming and going, but you may care to play spot the threaded here though...

You must be the one with the pie-stained shirt. I claim my £5.

Now I know I'm in the wrong job.
