Simon, >The system does support the ability to stop called programs from adopting >via a propogate authority attribute but Rochester haven't seen fit to >expose that. I keep asking for it but I guess I'm alone. This function is there if you are willing to use the Suppress Adopted User Profile option on the Modify Invocation Authority Attributes (MODINVAU), Call External (CALLX), or Transfer Control (XCTL) MI instructions. See http://www.as400.ibm.com/tstudio/tech_ref/mi/ for the latest description of these instructions. >>There are some exceptions that can be significant, like triggers, >>which end adoption. > >I didn't know that. I can understand a trigger not inheriting adopted >authority from earlier in the stack but I doubt they stop the trigger >itself from adopting authority via USRPRF(*OWNER). It is true, OS/400 suppress adopted authority when calling almost all exit programs. As you guessed we do not prevent the called exit program from adopting is owners authority.
