Walter,

The owner's group authority is not used in V5R2.

"If the owner profile is a member of a group profile, the group's authority
is -not- used for adopted authority."

Thank you for your support,

I am a little confused:

Here Dan says that is adopted:
http://systeminetwork.com/article/adoption-authority-public-and-group-profile-misconceptions

Here in flowchart 8B, step #3:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/rzarl/rzarladpchmh.htm
"The system checks the private and primary group authorities for the program owner."

I dont sure, whether I have a mistake or this functionality was enabled from a recent release. I am working on v5r2.

Walter
