It sounds like you need to suggest your client perform a security audit.
The authorities you mention should be restricted to only a few profiles.

This is what I was able to do:

My profile 
*SECOFR 
*ALLOBJ 
*JOBCTL 
*SECADM 
*SERVICE
*SPLCTL 
has init pgm and menu.

EXODUS server profile
*ALLOBJ 
*IOSYSCFG 
has *signoff

I changed EXODUS to have new password the changed to 
have init pgm and menu. I then signon as EXODUS and changed my profile 
to have *IOSYSCFG special authority. Signed back on and started my own 
server.

What should I suggest to the Ops Manager to correct this work around? 
Besides just changing my profile :) Others are out there like this(
mainly 
contractors ) and I'm 
afraid they might come back after they leave. Should I voice my concern
or 
is there one.
Client did know of my actions so I wasn't doing this in the dark just 
showing it to him. But my knowledge is limited in 
this side of things what direction should he go.

Thanks 
Bill Hopkins
