Hi

I wanted to delete an user profile so i did WRKOBJOWN first. The user did
own a number of objects so i changed the owner of these objects until
WRKOBJOWN showed the user did not own any objects.

But when i tried doing DLTUSRPRF USRPRF(USERX) OWNOBJOPT(*NODLT) it not not
allow me do to because the user owned objects.

I did WRKOBJOWN again to check that there really were no objects owned and
there weren't. But in the joblog i noticed the following message

Message ID . . . . . . :   CPI2297       Severity . . . . . . . :   00
Message type . . . . . :   Information
Date sent  . . . . . . :   22/05/03      Time sent  . . . . . . :   10:43:13

Message . . . . :   User profile USERX owns directory objects that do not
  have links.
Cause . . . . . :   The Work with Objects by Owner (WRKOBJOWN) command was
  used to display the objects owned by user profile USERX. User profile
  DENNISP owns directory objects that do not have links to them.

I was able to delete the user profile by using OWNOBJOPT(*CHGOWN) but i'm
curious as to what 'directory objects that do not have links to them' are
and how can i see them.
