  • 1.  Generating HMAC Keys for Enhanced Passtickets

    Posted Tue March 11, 2025 04:55 PM

    Hello,

    To generate an enhanced passticket an HMAC key must preexist within ICSF.  It appears that UKO does not support an HMAC template for creating HMAC keys.  If this is the case for the foreseeable future i would like to avoid using the ICSF panels within ISPF.

    Is there any sample REXX code that a customer can use to build/customize within their own process to generate HMAC keys for an application?

    Thanks in advance!

    I'm 99.9% sure there is a sample out there - I just have to find it. It might be w/ RACF. Let me ask around and get back to you.

    I just posted a couple samples to the library of the education community (I hope - fingers crossed). If they don't show up soon - let me know and I can try to email them to you directly.
