This person should not be debugging programs.  I'm the one who would do
that or possibly my boss, and he would probably ask me to do it.  This
person works with EDI.  Eric's previous message said that it could be used
for a communications trace but that would still be stretching things quite
a bit for this person's job function.

Half of those commands were commands commonly used in debugging a program.
 Hopefully that level of access is no longer needed (it was a V4R3 source,
right?).

I wonder if a clue would be anything with QSRV listed as having access
DSPOBJAUT OBJ(STRSST) OBJTYPE(*CMD)

There is a WRKOBJOWN command but I don't see a WRKOBJUSR command.

9 topics have matches for: SERVICE special authority

ADDPGM (Add Program) Command, 3.1.61

Hope this helps.

I happened to notice that the security of a person who used to be in the
I.T. department still has the special authority of *SERVICE.  My hunch is
that they don't need this anymore.  What actually does this give them?
Access to SST?  Both the help text and Infocenter say "Service authority
is
granted to this user.  The user can perform service functions."  That's
like saying my cat can walk on four legs because he has four legs.  I
didn't find anything in the archives.  Thanks.
