A comment in your recent posting caught my eye ...

Do you really give all your users command line access?  What happens in
BPCS security, if users call things from the command line?  Aside from
that, doesn't opening up your command line to users make you a little
nervous?  AS400 security is definitely not my area, but doesn't this give
them access to an awful lot of VERY powerful commands, like deleting files
or ending a subsystem?  Or are there other ways you restrict them to only
using certain commands from the command line?  Even using CHGJOB scares me
... what if they change to a previous date, like BEFORE the month end
close?
