Wow. That's incredibly ancient (1998 - and note the VM/ESA logo). If you are CD-ing to one of your own disks, you don't need a pw. You will get the disk R/W unless someone else has it linked R/W. For other people's disks, you still have to use ACCT. (Another reason ESMs are handy to have. No more stinkin' mdisk pws.) That website is also out-of-date w.r.t. SENDFILE.
