You should have a catalog already set up for users. What I'd do is find
another regular user, and then go to ISPF 3.4. Put in that userid as the
HLQ. The top entry in the list should be just the ID and *ALIAS on the
right. Do an "I" (information) on this entry. It should show you a catalog
name. Cut that catalog name. Now on ISPF option 6, enter a command like:
DEF ALIAS(NAME('NEWUSER') RELATE('...the name of the catalog you cut'))
