Rather than using STDIN redirection to "answer" the password prompt, eliminate the prompt by imbedding the password in the jobstream and saving it to a temporary file:

 !ECHO T JOB2.G2.ACCT2   >EDTCMD
 !ECHO C "UNAME" TO "UNAME/!USERPWD" IN 1  >>EDTCMD
 !ECHO K $NEWPASS,UNN   >>EDTCMD
 !ECHO E   >>EDTCMD
 !RUN EDITOR.PUB.SYS  <EDTCMD
 !STREAM $OLDPASS

Note that this is unnecessary if you own Security/3000; it already has this functionality built into it.

Subject: stream job across ACCOUNT bounderies


 Hi

I once more need the wisdom of the list.

I need to stream a job about account bounderies, but I do not want to
specify the PWDs in the jobs.

SO lets say:
job1.g1.acct1
  stream job2.g2.acct2

As there is no PWD in job2, job1 is prompted for the PWD. I do have
access to the correct PWD within a database in acct1 and I do have a
program wich read this PWD and set a variable USERPWD, within the job.

But whatever I tried led to an "incorrect PWD" error.

like
!QUICK INFO="AUTO=GETPWD.QKPROG LINEREAD TERM=HP700/92-48"
CPL
!SHOWVAR
!echo !USERPWD > tmp
!STREAM JOB2.G2.ACCOUNT2 < tmp
!EOJ

How can I do this?
TIA
Friedrich
