Re: Authorization Failures.

Leith,

Re: Your point #1.

I don't know if you already got an answer to this......

I found that some programs try to get authority to every library in your library
list.  I found this to be true with IBM's program when you STRTCPSVR (either 
*DNS
or *DHCP - I forget which one) as an example.

The work around was to make sure I didn't have any user libraries in my library
list.  I'm used to running from my own user profile since I have *allobj and 
this
problem doesn't happen if I use QSECOFR since this user profile doesn't have any
user libraries.
