RemotePassword (MQCHAR12)

This field specifies the password from a partner.

• For a security exit at an MQCHT_CLNTCONN channel, this password is a password which has been obtained from the environment. The exit can choose to send it to the security exit at the server.
• For a security exit at an MQCHT_SVRCONN channel, this field might contain a password which has been obtained from the environment at the client, if there is no client security exit. The exit can use this password to validate the user identifier in RemoteUserIdentifier.

  If there is a security exit at the client, then this information can be obtained in a security flow from the client.
