The MS$Same value is passed as the user name and as the password in Host Integration Server 2004 (902291)

MORE INFORMATION

For more information about the context array, click the following article numbers to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: For more information about how to use the context array, see the "COMTIContext Interface" section of the Transaction Integrator Programmer's Reference. The Transaction Integrator Programmer's Reference is available in the Host Integration Server 2004 documentation under SDK.

To confirm that you are experiencing this behavior, create a trace by using TI WIP internal tracing on the Host Integration Server 2004 computer. Additionally, create a Data Link Control trace on the Host Integration Server 2004 computer. Use the traces to verify the data that is passed in the ATTACH request to the mainframe. Additionally, use the traces to determine whether the explicit security callback routine successfully completed.

Note the difference between the two trace log examples. Although the successful callback and the unsuccessful callback show the words "security callback succeeded," you must search for two more lines that contain the following information:

• When the callback is successful, the line that ends with the words "security callback succeeded" is followed by two lines that end with the words "got userid" and "got pswd." The presence of these two lines confirms that the callback is successful.
• When the callback is not successful, the lines that end with the words "got userid" and "got pswd" are not present. The absence of these two lines indicates that the values that are returned by the callback are not valid.

The following trace log example is an example of a successful callback from a TI WIP trace log:

	3588 00000e80 Nov 12 17:23:50.562	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect explicit security callback succeeded.
	3588 00000e80 Nov 12 17:23:50.562	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect got userid. 
	3588 00000e80 Nov 12 17:23:50.562	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect got pswd. 
	3588 00000e80 Nov 12 17:23:50.562	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect Using Non-link model RemoteTp=XXXX.

The following trace log example is an example of an unsuccessful callback from a TI WIP trace log:

	3588 00000d5c Nov 12 17:30:56.328	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect explicit security callback succeeded. 
	3588 00000d5c Nov 12 17:30:56.328	14040	LU 6.2 Transport Connect Using Non-link model RemoteTp=XXXX.

Sample Systems Network Architecture trace data

The ATTACH request in the following Data Link Control trace shows that the MS$SAME value is passed to the host as the user name and as the password.

	---- Element at address 024E1B68, start 10, end 268 
	
	0B912040 0502FF00 03D10000 08C3E2E2     <j @.....J...CSS>
	
	E3C1F0F2 7C120802 D4E25BE2 C1D4C508     <TAXX|...MS[SAME.>
	
	01D4E25B E2C1D4C5 1910E5C5 D9C9E9D6     <.MS[SAME..

This code example is followed by a response from the host that clearly indicates a security violation.

The following Function Management Header 7 (FMH7) code example includes the sense data "080F 6051" in the last line. According to the formats guide and to the Advanced Program-to-Program Communications (APPC) reference manual, this sense data indicates the following.

	Secondary Return Code = 080F6051 (AP_SECURITY_NOT_VALID)
