I turned LDAP on an 08 system with an invalid setting and I cannot get in.
Is there a registry key I can revert to? I checked and cant find anything. Thanks in advance.
Written for AIX, but it should still work for you:

Justin, thanks again. This worked for me. You might want to add to the wiki that you need to restart the library server.
Excellent tip. I wrote that article when I couldn't get CMOD to start, so that's a valid point in your scenario.
Thanks!

Is it safe to assume that this is not an IBM supported method?
Anything that modifies the database manually is unsupported. However, if you called them with this problem, this is how you'd have to fix it.
Heh, I did that. And I got a blob from a link.
And the link.
Thanks again JD
Hello Justin,
just for info, in DB2, you can use the function
BITANDNOT
in order to flip a bit according to your needs.
You were saying in the wiki:
QuoteIn this example, simply subtract 4 from the value returned on your system, and update the field in the database accordingly
if you write that:
$ db2 "update arssys set sys_mask=bitandnot(sys_mask, 4)"and if the bit 3 is set, then it will be cleared, and if it was cleared, then it stays cleared!
Kind regards,
Alex
I swear, I learn as much as I teach here. :D
That's an excellent tip. Thanks Alessandro! I'll try and get that updated today. :)

I actually spent some time re-writing and expanding this article in the wiki -- here's the shortcut: https://cmod.wiki/index.php?title=Manually_disabling_LDAP_authentication
