Re: Encrypting a library

Hello Rob,

I ran these commands on my IBM i:

Thanks for that valuable insight!

I cannot see the "Advanced" box to encrypt a file like I can with files on a Window server.
I take it I need to use other encryption software?

Yes and no. That built-in encryption might be available only with Windows Servers, and local file systems.

I can go into that share, double click on strcode.usrspc and tell it to use notepad to open it. Type some updates into it, save it and exit.

Actually encrypting a file isn't necessary. It's completely sufficient to *update* a file, as you did.

Did you reopen the file to check if your updates actually made it to the IBM i?

:wq! PoC
