Hello,

I have written a Pro *C program on the VAX operating system.

When a user types in his or her password, I do not want the password to appear on the screen. I can't find any documentation on how to do this at all.

Here is a sample of my code:

   printf("\n\nEnter username: ");
   scanf("%s", username.arr);
   username.len = strlen((char *) username.arr);

printf("\nEnter password: ");
/* set term/noecho;

   system("noecho"); */
   scanf("%s", password.arr);
   password.len = strlen((char *) password.arr);
/* set term/echo;

system("noecho"); */
printf("\n");

Thank you.
Any help would be deeply appreciated. My email address is mjl04133_at_iname.com.
