Shai, In response to your question as to how to secure the DB2 data that lives on the Open Systems disk.
I would want userid based security. Since we are talking about query only, I see two levels of access. 1. SELECT privilige to a table. 2. SYSADM authority, allowed to define (make available for query) tables and grant SELECT to other users. IP security would be a nice to have additional layer, but I see userid as the primary method. -Rob Wunderlich ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
