Expert advice at your fingertips
Once in a while you come across a problem you can't solve yourself. It's then that you wish you had your own expert right there to help you out. Well, we've come up with the next best thing -- the Top Expert Advice newsletter. Our goal is to help iSeries professionals manage tasks they deal with regularly. Each month we will give you expert advice on such topics as security, backup and recovery, Web development and application development. We hope these Ask the Expert questions and answers will help you deal with a similar issue you're grappling with or perhaps enable you to take proactive steps to prevent problems. The debut edition, which many of you received last week, covered security. In it we addressed issues such as implementing FTP and ODBC security and how to get to level 40 security. To continue to receive the Top Expert Advice newsletter, you need to sign up for it. Simply edit your member profile by selecting the Top Expert Advice newsletter under the Tips section. And if there's a topic you'd like us to cover, let me know. E-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]. |

Security snafu
This user changed the default Public authority to *Exclude on V4R5 system, but now the programmers say every time they create a new object the Public can't use it. Is there a way to compile a program or create a member with Public authority *Use as the default instead of changing the system value?

Debugging ILE RPG: What am I missing?
Chance says, "I execute the CRTBNDRPG command with the OPTION(*NODEBUGIO) and DBGVIEW(*SOURCE). I then execute the STRDBG command (with no changes to the defaults). The "display module source" screen comes up, but when I press F10 to step through the code, I am returned to the command line. What am I doing wrong?"
Do you know?

| Tip of the Week: |
WRKF provides WRKOBJ-like file detail
The WRKOBJ command works well if you want to locate and work with OS/400 objects anywhere on your system. The problem, tip writer Joe Hervik points out, is it also lists other OS/400 objects, such as programs (*PGM), output queues (*OUTQ), tables (*TBL), and data queues (*DTAQ). It's not granular enough when locating files. If you're looking for specific OS/400 file objects, try the Work with Files (WRKF) command. |
