As I suggested in a prior posting, I would investigate these auditors. If your postings reflect their knowledge and approach I would not have any confidence in their findings. As Peter Relson said D PROG,APF is more trustworthy than ISRDDN. However, they also should be interested in all PARMLIB members that can cause a library to be APF authorized as well as means of updating APF libraries. A competent auditor can help improve your system. An incompetent one can waste your and management's time and money and may even leave your system more vulnerable.
