Re: To Restrict a command in the command line but to allow it torun in a progarm

Chandra,

You can use adopted authority with the initial program. Make sure the owner
of the program object has the right to command CHGJOB and change the program
to use adopted authority - CHGPGM PGM(x) USER(*OWNER), I think it is.
Potential problem with this approach: if this initial program takes the
users to a command line, they will there have all the power of the owner of
the initial program. This can be circumvented by using a second program that
breaks the chain of adopted authority - I think it is CHGPGM(y)
USEADPAUT(*NO).

Oh, and if you make that second program an RPG program, you're on subject as
well :-)
