RE: NetServer

Start looking for all jobs around that time that were run by QSECOFR. Someone must of ended the service. That someone signed on as QSECOFR. Perhaps with System i Navigator. I would do a DSPLOG to an out file and query that for QSECOFR.

We had our Netserver end out of the blue the other day. Looking at theQSYSOPR msgq, and the QHST log, I found jobs related to the Netserver that were ended by QSECOFR. When I looked at the previos sign on date for this profile, it had not been used to sign on in over a month prior to this event happening the other day. I have no idea how this is possible. A couple of messages in QHST showing that QSECOFR ended these jobs which ultimately took down our Netserver:

Job 168511/QPGMR/QZLSSERVER was ended by user QSECOFR.
All prestart jobs are ending for program QZLSFILET in QSYS.

We are running i5/OS V6R1M1, yes I know it is no longer supported. We have the latest and LAST cumme applied and the latest groups and hypers installed.

Thoughts??
