RE: [Security400] Authorization List question

["David Morris" <David.Morris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Charles,

If you have the source I would scan it but you probably won't find
anything since it doesn't sound like you are maintaining authorities to
these. I have seen more than one home grown menu that checked authority
to an authority list to determine whether an option or menu was
available. However, if no one has authority to the authority lists you
should be safe.

Mike,

The owner is the user I replaced.  Interestingly enough, the creation
date
is 12-19-1989 but the "Created by User" and "Created on System" fields
are
blank.

Here's a list:
AUTL1       *AUTL     QSYS                    OT101M - Misc. Master
Files
AUTL2       *AUTL     QSYS                    ma401m (auth. list)      
 
AUTL3       *AUTL     QSYS                    MA000M _-WINSTON'S MKT
MAIN

OT101M, MA401M, and MA000M are all menus in our home grown package.

I am reasonably sure that they while they may have once be used they
are not
now.

Thoughts?
