Re: Locking users out of an IFS directory

Sorry, I wasn't intending for you to use DTAAUT(*RX) by itself. I was intending for you to my previous response and replace DTAAUT(*EXCLUDE) with DTAAUT(*RX). So you'd have this:

CHGAUT OBJ('/my/dir') USER(my-user) DTAAUT(*RX) OBJAUT(*NONE)

in particular, OBJAUT(*OBJEXIST) would give the user permission over the existence of objects (ability to create/delete). OBJAUT(*NONE) should remove that ability.

Except that DTAAUT(*R) was the first thing I tried, before I even bothered the List, and it didn't stop the user from creating a file in the directory.

Oops. DTAAUT(*RX) was the first thing I tried.

DTAAUT(*R) appears to block new file creation, but at the cost of causing other problems.
