Re: IFS file authority

[jpcarr@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

If you write your file out with RPG,  using the API's,    You have control
over all the flags.   I would recommend that method.
You don't have the same choices with CPYTOSTMF

Troops,

When I run CPYTOSTMF to copy to a file in the IFS, *Public has no rights to
use the file and the user gets "access denied" when they open the file from
their pc.

I then use option 9=Work with authority from the WRKLNK display, grant
*PUBLIC *RWX rights to the file and the user can then access the file.

CPYTOSTMF does not have a PUBAUT parameter ?

How can my batch pgm grant authority to an IFS file ?

Can a user could be given all rights to all files created in a directory,
for now and forever ?


Thanks,
