Hello group,

I tried to run the ´sample´ IBM password copy utility on z/OS 1.7 and
z/OS 1.8. The tool runs without errors, but the copied password could
not be used. Has anyone recently used this IBM tool? Or has someone
used an alternative to copy passwords between RACF databases or users.

In my case, users are going to be renamed. Since this will be done
using ´big bang´ it´s not a good idea to give everyone a new password,
transporting the old password would be a great help.

Thanks for helping!

Regards
Wolfgang Schaefer
