Subject: Re: Turning on ACF2 SECURITY Privilege through an exit . . .
Hi Tony,
We want the users to have the SECURITY privilege while they
are using an
ISPF application and ONLY while they are using this app. If we grant
them SECURITY using a command they will have that privilege the next
time they logon to TSO, regardless of the app., and that 'would be
wrong' (as Mr. Nixon said).
Does this explain it ?
Regards,
Jon
Hum, I don't know ACF2. What occurs to me as a __possibility__ is to have your
ISPF application execute a routine via IKJEFTSR interface. This would invoke an
APF authorized (via AC(1) and IKJTSOnn member of PARMLIB) program. I think that
you could pass parameters via the REXX variable interface, bidirectionally.
This routine would be APF authorized only while it was executing. Depending on
what you want to do, this may give you sufficient authorization to do what you
want. It likely depends on whether you can isolate the section of code which
require SECURITY privilege into a separate module which acts sort of like a
subroutine (and does no ISPF functions).
Unfortunately, I don't know ACF2 at all and can't find anything via Google that cleared
up what "SECURITY privilege" grants to a user.
