Re: ifs security and qpwfserver autl change gotchas?

/QSYS.LIB/YOURLIB.LIB/YOURFILE.FILE/YOURMBR.MBR - that's an extra layer in the "directory" tree - similar to how FTP works on the i, the "FILE" is like another directory. Member is where the data is, not the file, one could say.

Every library object gets an extension that is the object type when pointed to using path naming. I suspect you already know all that, but you did ask, right?   :)

Cheers
Vern

Malware that encrypts directories certainty CAN encrypt QSYS.LIB given a share. I’ve seen it done.
Interesting. I wonder how IBM i maps these record-oriented files to the stream environment on the other side.

:wq! PoC
