In either case, doesn't it make sense to have IDENTIFY return a default RSCSid of RSCS (if there is no SYSTEM NETID entry specifying otherwise) instead of *, since everyone *does* have RSCS these days, and (unless you know what you're doing and have deliberately changed the id) it's always installed as userid RSCS? It does no harm, and strikes me as something that is in the category of picking sensible defaults (and in at least one case, a default that avoids a problem and makes it easier to exploit useful function). -- db
