Re: Programatically check for an IBM supplied profile

Mike,

My apologies if my earlier post was confusing, now I see I
should have written "any user profile beginning with 'Q'
*should* be a system profile" vs. "any user profile
beginning with 'Q' *is* a system profile".

Ah, the wonders of expressing oneself in another
language... :-)

BTW, Sometimes third-party software packages create their
own user profile. Maybe you should have that in account.

Regards,

Luis Rodriguez

Very true - someone who shall remain nameless did a test
with a certain
group of auditors to test their testing process.....it
went by
completely unnoticed.

Ultimately, I'm hoping to do a number of things - 1.)
varius processes
against true user profiles and 2.) varius processes
against true
IBM/system supplied profiles.

Right now I think I will have to manually review the
profiles (some
methods can be gleaned automatically) and maintain it
somewhere. The
SECTOOLS process is supposed to be used for inactivity
processes.
Therefore there are sometimes some non-IBM profiles in
there.
