RE: CHGOWN Problem

Yes, submit the job under a different user profile (USER parm).  The user
will still need authority to that user profile but for that you could use
adopted authority.  There are also a couple api's that you can use to swap
profiles so you can add the authority and then swap back.  I've never used
them but there are references to them in the archives.
