DSPAUT should do the trick!

As far as I can tell, the DSPOBJAUT command will only show you the authority to objects in the QSYS.LIB file system.  I need to check the users authority to objects in the Root file system.  Also, instead of returning a list of users who are authorized to the file, I would like just to be told if the user, that I provide to the command or API, is authorized (Yes or No).  That way I don't have to sort through a list of authorized users and I don't have to worry if the user is authorized through a group name instead of a user name.

 

Thanks.

DSPOBJAUT will show you what authority a user has to most anything. You can
also specify an OUTFILE to keep the data in if you want to check it and
perform a routine based on their authority.
