RE: Changing user profiles without *SECADM; adding *SECADM without ev en having *SECADM

Removing command line access is not an option.
We are at QSECURITY level 30.
Here are most profile attributes and a DSPPGM of the initial menu.

        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?
