Hi,
 
 there is a COBOL application which is supposed to do TCP/IP calls nowadays. 
When starting the application (TCPIPAPP) it requests READ access to the 
following datasets:
 SYS1.TCPIP.HOSTS.SITEINFO
 SYS1.TCPPARMS
 The application is started with the callers Userid.
 
 RACF people don't like to grant generic READ permission to all users. Is there 
any other solution?
 Could something like that be used to only allow that specific program access 
to TCP/IP?
 PERMIT 'SYS1.TCPPARMS' CLASS(DATASET) ID(*) ACCESS(READ) 
WHEN(PROGRAM(TCPIPAPP))
 
 Are there better solutions, ideas for that?
 
 Thanks, Denis.
