RE: Allowing users to do RCVNETF without granting authority to CMD RCVNETF

You should only need to enrol in the system directory the user the file
is being sent to (which is why we had a dummy user/directory entry for a
user called FILERCVR SYSTEMxx in our directory - we always sent to that
so it didn't matter if someone changes jobs), and the user that is
running the job to receive the file.  This user would need *ALLOBJ
authority, and could be this same FILERCVR id but doesn't have to be.
As mentioned in other posts, this FILERCVR id could have *ALLOBJ
authority, but password *NONE.  You would submit the job to receive the
file to run under this user profile.

        I was TRYING to avoid having the user(s) enrolled in the
Directory (thus
        the CLP being owned by QSECOFR) so that we don't have to worry
about
        whoever has authorization to this menu option being enrolled.
That might
        be obvious when we set this up the first time, but when those
people
        quit and someone else replaces them and needs to do the same
functions,
        we have to be concerned with the Directory (we don't as a
general rule,
        enroll users in the Directory since we do not use office and
MOST users
        are not using file download/upload programs...)
