Thanks Vernon.. CHGATR -- I'd forgotten that one!

I think we will have to throw this over to support. Here's another extract
from the qsh entry in case anyone else has any ideas:

This is running V5R3. 

Just a thought.... does *ALLOBJ negate permissions?

Subject: Re: Creating a read only file in the IFS

It seems the "cat" command should not work, so it might be worth a 
call to IBM support to see if this is correct. I tried this and get 
the message "The file access permissions do not allow the specified 
action." when I do this. And the DOS (PC) Read only value in WRKLNK 
is still "No". If your "cat" works, it is a bug - call IBM Support. 
The "Read only" attribute is a DOS attribute - from V5R1 and on you 
can change it with the CHGATR command.

BTW, I was doing this on V5R2.
