RE: Timesharing Services for MI-programming

["MCPARTLAND, Stan" <stanley.mcpartland@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

It's been many years since I've coded MI so this comment may not be
applicable.  Perhaps someone can confirm or eliminate my concern.  At that
time I had to code my own authority checking as the OS did not provide
object security at the MI program level.  An MI programmer on a timeshare
service would have access to all objects owned by all of the service's
customers.  As a timeshare service customer I would find this extremely
undesirable.

Regards,
Stan

Fellow MI lovers,

First of all I want to wish You and Your family all the best for 2001.

I want to get an account by a Timesharing Services for doing some own MI
development.
Netshare400 got a very good recommendation in a similar question in the
Midrange-List.
As Leif pointed out in his course, *SERVICE special authority and access to
the
STRSST-command is almost a must in order to do some serious MI programming.

Does anyone know if Netshare400 is willing to give this kind of authority ?


Kind regards

Chris
