RACF is a component of VM now and costs peanuts. Plus since your security admins already use RACF in zOS it would be easy for them to enforce the same standards in VM (SETROPTS). Security is more than authentication.

Is it possible to set up VM that you can authenticate against LDAP? We don't have RACF for VM and our management will not currently sign off on 'paying for something we already have'. As we have RACF for z/OS, and we don't run z/os under vm, is it possible at all to have VM authenticate use id's via LDAP? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 This communication, including attachments, is for the exclusive use of addressee and may contain proprietary, confidential or privileged information.
