Re: ODBC Problems...

Evan,

I have just deactivated the CA ODBC settings and executed the Hit driver
and yes, it works ?as advertised?. I suppose that, as Rob Berendt says in
another post in this site, CA must work thru an exit point. Remember that
you can authorize users in an individual basis. So there must be a file
or list in some place. Nevertheless, basic OS/400 security remains in
place (the Hit driver asks for UserID & password)

Best Regards,

Luis Rodriguez

"Guessing" on how this works.  The CA driver goes to some special exit 
point to verify that it's cool.  Or the code itself checks some object on 
the iSeries to see if it's cool.

While if you wanted to lock down the HIT driver you should evaluate all
of 
your exit points.  WRKREGINF.

Luis

your post was perfectly clear - seems like I was the culprit !

I was surprised that a security setting for ODBC was bypassed by
something 
as simple as using another ODBC driver is all.
