RE: iSeries access for the Web - Security

Hi Vern

I had a customer using it who set it up himself. It was unreal being able to
log on as QSECOFR over the web (he didn't secure it very well....) I didn't
do any work securing it so I can't shed any light on what Dave might or
might not be able to achieve.

He was quite a customer. Rang me up one day to ask me could get FAX/400
(including non-installed hardware and software) operational for a
presentation he was doing the next day.

Regards
Evan Harris

You might be the only person in the world using that thing!

For those of you that have used iSeries Access for the Web, what do you

know about how granular it is possible to be with access/security/invoke
capability to its features. Specifically, I have some folks that claim it
is "the thing" to use, short of iNavigator, for end users to have access to
multiple users spoolfiles, messages and the like. The folks here have been
spoiled for years with special privileges that allowed them to see others
spool files, job messages, etc.

I'm looking for a way to give them the capability to see that sort of

information in a secure way with very granular access to specific functions
and features to specific users.

Is iSeries Access for the Web what I'm looking for or just another

convenience tool that allows too much to too many.

I'm looking through the archives but don't see anything on what I'm

looking for so far.

Thanks in advance,

Dave
