RE: Logon to only a specific workstation. -- MIDRANGE-L

One way I've seen it done, is to use a file of at least 2 fields, UserID &
WorkStn. Create a program that retrieves the user profile and workstation,
then does a lookup in the file. If the UserID exists, and workstation ==
WorkStn, then continue.

Use the new program as the INLPGM in each user profile you want to control.

Well I have close to 200 users and a majority of them it doesn't matter
where or what device they sign on from.  I just have a few users that I want
to restrict to log on to specific devices.  By restricting the authority to
a particular device, USER1 could log onto this workstation..but USER1 could
also log on to any of the other devices I don't restrict authority to. I
don't want to restrict most of my users to any specific device..I want to
restrict certain(not all) Users to ONLY be able to log onto the the device I
authorize them to.     Hope I made it a little more clear as to what I am
trying to accomplish.

Thanks,
Darrin
