from not managing object access control like you have to do on other

totally misses the real issue people need to deal with...object access
control is required in a network environment. <<

I totally agree the problem is in properly securing the base objects.  
It is unfortunate that many iSeries shops treat security and therefore
data integrity with such disregard.   This was recognized as a problem
and stopped in the '60/early 70's on mainframes, but that environment
has always been more mature in most all aspects of systems management.  


I'm curious where the microsystems and Unix-flavored shops are in data
integrity and security maturity.   I suspect the microsystems shops are
the worst.  

Take care,
