mechanism, such as user ID and password, to successfully authenticate the user. The
LOGDATA command is optional. Whether or not parameters are supplied and the values and
types of parameters depend on the selected logon method. LOGDATA is available only on
network-based platforms.

Usage Notes
Examples
For more information about logon security, see Security Administration.
If used, the LOGDATA command and the LOGMECH command must precede the LOGON
command. The commands themselves may occur in any order.
The example demonstrates using the LOGDATA, LOGMECH, and LOGON commands in
combination to specify the Kerberos logon authentication method and associated parameters:
.logmech KRB5;
.logdata joe@domain1@@mypassword;
.logon cs4400s3;
