RE: CD Burning software? -- MIDRANGE-L

Al,

>From the link david provided, step 3:

"Change the owner to QSYS.
QSYS MUST be the owner of the QINSTAPP program

CHGOBJOWN OBJ(QTEMP/QINSTAPP) OBJTYPE(*PGM) NEWOWN(QSYS)"

This is why I prefer to test EVERY piece of information against actual
experience, no matter WHO it comes from.  You and others have contradicted
this theory, and while I haven't tried it myself, I tend to go by your
experience rather than IBM docs, in this case (and many others).


BTW, NOBODY'S perfect.. but YOU DEFINITELY have a loooong ways to go, to
catch up to me in the "dumb" department...  LOL...!

I'm still looking for that English-Netspeak dictionary myself.  IIRC = If I
Recall Correctly.  Anyone in the biz for a length of time knows the problems
of "intermittant Alzeimher's" which I suffer from...  As the son of a
Professor of Journalism, I learned to qualify ALL my statements.. but I've
slacked off...  I should preface EVERY sentence with IIRC...;-)

| Al,
|
|
| IIRC (and I'm pretty sure I do) the docs said that QINSTAPP
| *MUST* be owned
| by QSYS.  I don't always believe the docs, and comments on the list
| indicate
| otherwise...
|
|
| I'm still flummoxed by this issue of LODRUN...  OT1H, you're lookin to pay
| good money to a software vendor, and run their app or tool on your
| system...
| But OTOH, you wouldn't trust their install program...?!?
|
| Like you said, I think there's a bug in the logic here, as you necessarily
| imply an awful lot of trust in the vendor, in the first place.

| |
| | A few points:
| |
| | 1).  If Brad's device (which I have contacted him on, and expressed an
| | interest in purchasing) emulates a 7208, it supports LODRUN.  LODRUN was
| a
| | cheap command to write, and was basically written in CL.
| | 2).  I could be wrong here, but I don't think that there's an ownership
| | restriction on LODRUN programs (which must be called QINSTAPP and be
| saved
| | from QTEMP), although there are clearly run time restrictions.  I've
| | probably written more QINSTAPP programs than anyone.  I am out of the
| | office, so I am limited as to my ability to look up stuff.
| | 3).  When I buy software, I am placing trust in my vendor.  (Maybe I'm
| | stupid.)  So I do not consider this a security risk.  Clearly LODRUN is
| | better tan following a run sheet that I could screw up.

| |
| | Thanks for the suggestion, I'll talk to my people about this.
| | Should be pretty easy to add to the product.
| |
| | I have to ask, is there anyone on this list that considers CDs
| | with LODRUN a bad idea to install on their AS/400?
