Re: QFileSvr.400 file system authority problem

[Ray Peterson <rpeterso@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the suggestion.  I looked and we match the default on both
systems.


That is:       *PUBLIC     *RWX         X     X     X     X
                          QSYS        *RWX         X     X     X     X
on the root directory.

Of course lower level directories are often much more restrictive.

Thanks...

Ray
