Re: Changing user profiles without *SECADM; adding *SECADM without ev enhaving *SECADM

Bryan,
     If the user doesn't need a command line, you could change their
profile to LMTCPB(*YES), which will prevent them from invoking a command
line.
Might the initial object be owned by a profile with *SECADM authority ?
They might be inheriting authority from it ? Do they have an initial pgm
or an initial menu ? I'd like to see all the usrprf attributes.

By the way, what security level are you at ? (DSPSYSVAL QSECURITY).

We have a user profile with special authority *NONE that can do a CHGUSRPRF
and add *SECADM special authority to another profile.  This is done from a
command line on the initial menu.  This initial menu has three options:
EXECUTE OFFICE, EXECUTE MAPICS, and SIGN OFF.

How is this possible?  We are on V4R4 and at cume level CO252440.

The profile in question has USER CLASS *USER, GROUP PROFILE *NONE, OWNER
*USRPRFand LIMIT CAPABILITIES *PARTIAL.

I think this may be due to adopted authority, but I am not a programmer and
I have dug as far as I can into this.  Can someone shed some light on this?
