Brad, Using the APPL class would be an effective means of governing entry into ViewDirect. Starting with the .SOURCE(RACF) member as Ken advised, you simply need to modify the RACROUTE REQUEST=VERIFY macro therein to include the APPL=applid parameter. The inclusion of this parameter prompts the APPL class profile check. If you run several instances of ViewDirect and want a different APPLID for each, you'll either need to include additional code to determine and set the APPLID value for each call, or you'll need to have an individual copy of the exit for each instance with a hard-coded value.
Alternatively, if you have a VTAM Session Manager, you could use its facilities to govern what application(s) a user may access. Regards, Bob Robert S.

These are supplied INEXIT04s for RACF, ACF2 or Top Secret logon security. We use the TOPSECRT one with no modifications. RTFM - Users Guide - Appendix C - Customization - INEXIT04 YMMV. Ken Porowski AVP Systems Software CIT Group E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Brad Carson Hello IBM-MAINers, We are trying to tackle an issue with ViewDirect (now ASG formally Mobius) and control which users can logon to a region via the RACF APPL class. We know that exit 4 would be a good place to check this since that is where the RACF userid/password is validated. So my questions are: 1. Does anyone know of a ViewDirect users group out on the net anywhere? 2. Would checking against the RACF APPL class be the way to do this? If not what else would you suggest? 3. Anyone have samples of their INEXIT04 that they would like to share? Frustrated in Burlington, NC. Brad S.
