Agreed.  I'm just not sure of the ramifications.  I'm sure NETPROFILE is used so that people don't have to sign on, which is a real problem.  But I sense that implementing true authorization for shares isn't going to be a slam-dunk.

Also, I think the article said that once you get past V6R1, anything over 0.2% is huge.  So yeah, those would seem to be a problem.  I think it's also interesting that NETPROFILE, QDIRSRV and QNOTES all have exactly the same percentage.  Which is especially strange since we aren't running Notes on the i.

I'm taking that NETPROFILE is a "guest" user for file shares (which is a WHOLE different tangent). I would remove them from everything they are not the owner of and add an authorization list(s) to those objects instead and put them in the authorization list(s).
