Since you are asking how to break the security mechanism, why don't you ask it as such?

Roger,
After more research, I'll make Client user exit that get a user entered MF userid/pswd and encrypted, pass to MF RACF to verify it before connected.
MF exit will set MCAuser with client entered userid that is verified by RACF to process a request.
Also, we have MQ security setup to preventing acess MQ commands already.
Thanks.

Well, that is the politically correct answer, if some from your company is watching but that is not what you were asking.

That 'dummy' exit I pointed you to will cause the client-side MQ libraries to not set the UserID. This will cause you to have full access to the remote queue manager on z/OS. Read my posting here a few times and you will understand why:

Now that you have read it, you will understand why this statement cannot possibly be true:

If you don't believe me download MQ Visual Edit and connect to your z/OS queue manager (leave the UserID blank). If the 'List' button on the Open Queue panel works then you have MQ Admin rights.

Now if you still want to create a z/OS MQ security exit and a Windows client-side security exit AND learn about the good, bad & ugly of cryptology, be my guess, but make sure your boss knows what you are up to. Because you will be spending hundreds if not thousands of hours on this project. I know this from first hand experience.
