RE: Administering GO ASSIST

Create your own menu and options.  I had to do this because for the "ATTN"
Key at a client's site years ago.  I duplicated only the menu and options
that I wanted to users to have access to.  Also if you'd like since now you
have full control you can modify the commands and only allow them to change
certain parameters too.  At that site they did not want users to have
command line access but they still needed to work with Spool Files and
read/send messages.

Subject: Administering GO ASSIST

Is there some way to administer the options in the menu GO ASSIST?  I get 
rather annoyed that an employee of some small division on a partion that 
supports several divisions in multiple countries does a 
GO ASSIST
4. Send messages
Interrupt user Y
Message text:  Sign off.  We are doing period end.
Send to:  *ALL

If I have to administer this using iSeries Navigator I can accept that.

Bad enough that it has *ALLACT, but with *ALL someone comes back from 
vacation logs on and the first thing he gets is a message telling him to 
sign off immediately.

I already did a CHGCMD SNDBRKMSG and took away *INTERACT.  We have 
wrappers for the command to send to a particular user.
