Hi,

MQv7 is installed in a linux sever. For which I dont have direct access from my windows machine. So I use putty to connect with a tunnelling to the listener port of that QM if I need to have a connection from my windows machine here. FYI, I have installed MQv7 here in windows.

I also have rfhutil. After setting the MQserver variable to the tunnelled port to connect to the linux QM and clicking "Load Names" I get a 2035 which is authentication problem.

How can I clear this or where can I give the credentials in rfhutil while it connects to the linux QM.

FYI, I am able to connect from MQ explorer v7 to a remote(linux) QM by giving host as localhost and port as <tunnelled port in putty>. And in a further step I have an option to give credentials to connect to that QM(only in v7 MQexplorer).

configure ssl.

set an mcauser on the SVRCONN, and set SSLPEER to ensure that only your certificate can connect to that SVRCONN.

grant authorities on the qmgr machine to the userid in MCAUSER.

get used to this practice, it (or using an exit) is the only way to actually secure MQ properly.

As can anyone else! They can also perform any admin action.

You should consider using the OAM security and groups/ids to grant queue access without full admin authority. Especially to developers!

Setting MCA user to mqm, is the number one No-No in MQ (unless secured in some way).

SSL can be a steep learning curve.

Using the free BlockIP2 exit may be a reasonable starting point to restrict access by userid or IP address instead.
