Those APIs (qsysetuid(), et al) are designed to make it easier to convert
Unix programs to run on the iSeries.  Since you're coding in RPG, that's
probably not where you're coming from.

You might find the Profile Handle or Profile Token APIs more intuitive for
your purposes, since you give them an actual user profile name rather than
a Unix uid/gid as input.

Just a thought.
