I also agree that one shouldn't blindly accept that but inquire as to
the
details. I've run into one vendor that had an adopted authority program
that had one line:
CALL QCMD
That way the users could do stuff on the phone with their support
without
having to deal with the users pesky security department.
That inquiry into the details can be a pain. I've found that a bunch of
TAATOOLs help to profile loaded packages: PRTPGMSEC, PRTOWNOBJ,
DSPUSRAUT2. Other tools help fix lousy security schemes. CHGLIBOWN is
valuable for mass changing of a package from its installed owner to a new
one. Of course, they all either require or work best when run by QSECOFR.
Looking at the help for TAATOOL, there are around 89 programs that run as
USRPRF(*OWNER) and must be owned by a user with special authority.
I guess it's possible to install the package and have a profile other than
QSECOFR own the objects. If that profile still has to have *ALLOBJ, I
fail to see the point.
