If I set this up using the instructions at
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6442293
do I really need to create a special user profile? Can I just use my own?
Is there I problem with doing the recommended: chmod 755 /home/myuserid
I did do a little searching and see that: 755 means read and execute access for everyone and also write access for the owner of the file. I guess I'm ok with that as most of the stuff in my directory is transitory in nature other than that set up by stuff like RSE, java, some ssl setup I did awhile back and all. All that seems to be owned by me so I don't see that as shooting myself in the foot.
I think I'm having a flashback to the setup for ssl and I remember that if I don't have 755 on the directory the backend code for setting up secure communications will fail.
