RE: IFS mapped drive issues

["Musselman, Paul" <pmusselman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are other ways to control security and access without lots of user profiles.

We have a plethora of apps, each with their own environments, and one user profile per user.  We have a menu system that controls and allows the users to select the app(s) they want to use, and adds the proper libraries to their library list as they enter the app, and restores the library list when they leave the app.  The outqs, jobds, jobqs, etc. are all in the libraries for the app, and come along for the ride when we change the library list.  Security for the libraries is generally assigned to a group profile, and authorized users are members of that group.  Users can be members of multiple groups.  Adding an application to a user usually requires adding the user to the proper group profile, and activating the correct menu option for the user.

This makes it easy to get rid of a user-- one profile to zap and they're gone!  (;

Each app has its own environment (security, libraries, outqs, jobds, jobqs), all controlled by unique userprofiles.
