> This would create such a segment, ranging from 256MB to 1792MB: > DEFSEG SWAPPING 10000-10000 EW 10001-6FFFF EN I am getting a paranoid thought: shouldn't that segment be defined restricted with the RSTD option? Defining large EW/EN segments basically gives out the authorization to enlarge a users Vsize without requiring directory authorization. With only below-the-bar segments that capability was limited, but with above-the-bar segments this can add up. I can envision a system being brought into great trouble by linking and filling all unrestricted EW segments. The current default is rather Windowish allowing all to anyone and is half a security hole. Maybe above-the-bar EW/EN segments should default (require?) to restricted. You listening, Endicott?
