RACF maintains an in-storage cache of recently referenced profiles that is pointed to from the ACEE. A possible way of achieving what you desire in RACF would be for the user to perform a number of "RACROUTE REQUEST=AUTH" for different profiles to "flush" the previous entries in the cache. I

I would have to somewhat disagree with that position. If a COBOL program issues OPEN INPUT for a file, that file *can* be READ by that program. If it issues OPEN OUTPUT or OPEN IO then that file *can* written to, and possibly also read for the IO case. You are right about the most general
