The RACF security product does not retain a password in clear text. No one can retrieve your password, and no security administrator would send you the password even if it is known. A security administrator can assign a new single use password similar to the password you received when you got your userid, but it appears to be the policy here that this is not done, mainly because it is a trivial matter to claim you are a valid user as you have just done when, in fact, you are not. Back in the days when I was a real security admin, I would do a password reset only for people known to me personally, and certainly not for someone on a public blog such as this.

As for using the AJAYM userid: it appears it is being actively used at present; I doubt the present user would take kindly to someone else using it. Most real shops regard userid sharing as you have proposed to be a termination offense. I doubt this is the case at Fandezhi, but I can tell you the security admins are considering killing AJAYM; they just do not have quite enough to justify it. I know for a fact the security admins have deleted a number of userids in the last few weeks for inappropriate use of the system.

If you are, in fact, an "IT professional" (which I personally doubt) and are using the Fandezhi system for work activity, you are misusing the system, and the administrators have every right to delete your ID. In fact, based on your statements here, do not be surprised if your ID disappears!

There is a web-interface to reset your password, why don't you use that one?

Furthermore, I agree with Steve Myers opinion about you, asking for passwords (for multiple userids) in an open forum is something nobody who has ever seriously used z/OS should ever do, and if the administrators decide to revoke and delete "SUNIL1" (which has not been used since 2008), I would consider that a very defensible option, especially as trying to reset, using the above URL, the SUNIL1 password with your email address, results in a "The email address(sunil...@...) and userid(SUNIL1) do not match." message, which implies that SUNIL1 is not your userid, but just one that conveniently matches your name.

Hi Prino,
While creating ID:Sunil1, I used sunil834u@gmail.com.Please verify in your system.Why everybody doubting over me.
Thanks,

People are doubting you because the wording of your posts looks like what is called "social engineering" to weasel your way into something you're not supposed to use. "Social engineering" is a major problem. Still, the wording of your posts clearly indicates you intend to use Fandezhi in a fraudulent manner; for this reason alone no one should have helped you.
