Securing an output queue

[Dean.Eshleman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,

I'm trying to secure a production output queue to keep developers from 
putting spool files in it and I'm struggling with how to do that.  Here 
are the current settings on the output queue:

Display any file *NO
Operator controlled *YES
Authority to check *OWNER

Object authority on the queue is as follows:

*PUBLIC                                   *USE 
*GROUP      MYGROUP      *ALL 
QSPL                                         *CHANGE
QSYSOPR                              *ALL 

I have read the help regarding these parameters and I'm not sure what to 
change.  I'm thinking that I change Authority to check to *DTAAUT and then 
add object authority for the various developer groups and set them to 
*USE.  I would probably need to change *PUBLIC to *CHANGE so that they can 
add spool files to the queue.  Is this the correct approach?

TIA
