Yes, I wanted to check something else and found it dead (for all releases). It's back up now (7:25 PM Friday 05Jan07). I used a local copy of the PDF to check my quoted source.
By design or not, it still seems to be odd that the user can do anythingto the object except change authorities :-)
There are many inconsistencies in the way permissions for stream files and directories work when viewed from the traditional perspective. A copy that works from cp within QSHELL will fail when attempted via the CPY command under the same user. The only reliable thing is that *RWX (data permissions) and the UGO levels behave as they do on Unix. Object permissions (which don't exist in Unix) behave not quite like they do for QSYS.LIB objects.
It appears that in this case CHGAUT is consistent with the rules of chmod() but inconsistent with the rules of GRTOBJAUT.
