Q.
I would like to use the Novell ODBC driver for checking the usernames and passwords. Which table would I be able to find those attributes (or columns)? I try to find this in Usernds, but with no luck.
A.
As I understand it, the password is not freely readable as an attribute of an object and will not, therefore, appear in a column or table that you obtain via the ODBC driver. To the best of my knowledge, you cannot even get at an encrypted form of it using raw DS APIs.
