Unless you trust the sender, Don't click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] Greetings, I have a USS Security question. We have a user with mid-level security, who is trying to archive and clean up some daily files. He successfully connects via TLS FTP and pulls the files; great. Then, in this session, issues the delete; it fails. Neither the files nor the Directory directly give him permission, however, there is an ACL giving him full RWX permission. The FTP log gives an error: Rc = 111 So I went looking for a RACF error. Sure enough, ICH408I ... INSUFFICIENT AUTHORITY TO UNLINK I understand that the Unlink is essentially the need to Write/update the directory, and again the ACL gives him full rwx access to the individual files and the directory. Now I'm hearing that unless he is in BPX.FILEATTR.PROTECT the ACL is not allowed; it's ignored. Can anyone confirm, dismiss, or otherwise enlighten us on this issue?
