Re: EDTOBJAUT from a CL program

What authorities are you revoking?

If it is changing to User Defined, take a look to see what authorities are NOT being revoked (don't forget about F11 on the DSP/EDTOBJAUT screens.

One cannot revoke authorities that have not been granted (unfortunately), so *ALL may not work for you.

The way I have done this in the past, is to write a program to retrieve the authorities that have been granted, and then revoke them individually. I *may* have a program lying around that does that type of thing.

Are you thinking of RVKOBJAUT?

I am trying to clean up the authorities on some objects on our system.

We
recently decided to give programmers *USE authority to production
objects
after years of letting them have *ALLOBJ. I am trying to write a CL
(or
even from a command line) do what I can easily do from the EDTOBJAUT
screen and that is completely remove a user profile from the list of
user
profiles that have authority. It looks like this:
Object
User Group Authority
*PUBLIC *USE
AMAPICS *ALL
BBAASE *ALL
GRPISPGMR *USE

With edtobjaut, I can field exit through BBAASE and *ALL and that line
is
gone. Great!
How do I do that with a command? I have tried RVKOBJAUT and it
changes
the authority to USERDEF and leaves the profile there.
Well I don't want it there. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
