wow. Am I reading you right? Using the *ADMIN server is a bad thing?!?! It has security flaws? IBM is putting out a product that is dangerous to use?

Note that you have taken a non-traditional approach to deploying a web site
to an AS400. The traditional approach, or rather how IBM tells you to do
it, is to use the *ADMIN server to create the server from scratch. That
obviously isn't efficient in some cases (like mine where I have an install
script for RPG-XML Suite to automate the authorities).

But on the flip side what you are asking is potentially a huge security
vulnerability - allowing the changing of securities through a derivative of
Websphere. Makes me shudder in my poop kickers (that's midwest for boots
:-)

I would much rather do the security changes from a command line and some of
that is just opinion and the other is the fact that there a large amount of
disconnect between the OS400 and Websphere folks (IMO).

That it is, Aaron. You are exactly right. But having to go back in
with a 5250 command line to give permissions?? The more likely answer
is that I don;lt know what I am doing! :) There must be a place in
the HTTP Administrator to set that. There HAS to be. I just am not
seeing it.

To expound on that (and I agree with Matt btw) the profile *might* be
QTMHHTTP. Do some trial and error to see what you get after giving
QTMHHTTP
access to those directories and files.

HTH,

It would be better to keep *PUBLIC set to *EXCLUDE and give the web
server's profile *RX authority.
