Where’s the MQ Security?

February 15, 2012 Roger Lacroix

I was at Wendy’s (in Canada) for lunch today and the cashier put the following flyer on my tray: Of course, it made me smile because I recently wrote a blog item that MQ people still need to implement either SSL or a security exit in WMQ v7.1. Maybe, I should create some T-Shirts with […]

MQAUSX LDAP on Linux x86 & Linux x64

February 1, 2012 Roger Lacroix

When MQAUSX first supported LDAP authentication, Capitalware used Novell’s LDAP Libraries for C for AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, Linux x86, Linux x64 (x86 64-bit) and Windows. Several years ago, for AIX, HP-UX and Solaris platforms, we switched to the native/included client LDAP libraries that are available for each OS (Operating System). This week, a weird bug […]

Where’s the Security?

January 23, 2012 Roger Lacroix

Over the last 2 months, all of the sudden, I have “where’s the security?” phrase running through my head. Instead of that little old lady from the 80’s Wendy’s commercial saying “Where’s the beef?”, I have her in my head saying “Where’s the security?”. Back in 2005, when I first starting selling Capitalware’s MQ Authenticate […]
