Take the task of managing user rights and permissions in WAS 4.0. You might first be inclined to use the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) to make changes of this kind in your LDAP registry. Exploited in this fashion, however, JNDI doesn't give you an easy way of assigning WAS roles for users, which means that any changes that you want to make need to be committed on a per-user basis. This approach can quickly become onerous. Alternately, you can use either XMLConfig or wscp to connect to JNDI and manage user rights and permissions programmatically. But an approach of this kind assumes that you're proficient in the use and syntax of XMLConfig or wscp. Users new to WAS could, then, be out of luck. There is another way, however. >> For the complete tip, CLICK: http://search390.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid10_gci815763,00.html =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ::::::::: DON'T MISS THESE IMPORTANT MESSAGES AND LINKS ::::::::: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Viewing the 'call stack' | Ask the Expert I have a user who has a dynamically called COBOL program and wants to find the calling module without passing the calling program in the linkage section.
