BPX.DAEMON is for processes changing the security environment of the AS (setuid()). There is a second, similar profile called BPX.SERVER which aims to enable a higher security level for processes changing the security environment on a UNIX thread (similar to MVS subtasks) level using the pthread_security_np() service. From what you describe, I guess that RDz might be using this call, and that BPX.SERVER is defined on your system. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
