WHAT!! <wipes incredulous look from his face>

IF the vendor is accessing the 400 via ODBC they must be going through the
exit points, no? Doesn't IBM call the exit points from within their
server-side code? Now, I'll admit that if you loaded server-side code for
this vendor then they may use a non-odbc method for accessing data, but IF
it gets to the 400 via ODBC is must go through the exit, no??

Subject: Re:odb security exit program


Hello all,

I recently finished a program that allows read only access to our database
files

You probably want to use the skeleton of this program and scan for the
qualified
library name and make sure that the library name matches the library that
you want to
give users access to.

Here is an example of an exit program for the IBM registered exit point
QIBM_QZDA_SQL1        ZDAQ0100     *YES     Database Server - SQL access

For longer SQL statements you can use the QIBM_QZDA_SQL2 and the associated
formats

Just remember to use the WRKREGINF command and remember to start/end  the
Host Server *DATABASE and the PreStart Jobs QZDAINIT and QZDASOINIT they
are
suppossed to run in subsytems QSYSWRK

Another thing is ... If you are dealing with vendors, there are no
guarantees that
every vendor that performs ODBC access to your database is going thru a
registered
IBM exit point.

I hope this hels
