What level of info do you need? If you're already using digital
certificates then you have some basic info and infrastructure setup already.
If you're not using them, then
(a) you should be; but
(b) you'll need to do a lot more reading and experimenting.
Some information sources that should help:
(a) RACF Security Administrator's Guide chapter 21, at
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ICHZA760/21.0?SHELF=EZ2ZO10F&DT=20050713233738
or http://makeashorterlink.com/?P44925C6C
(b) z/OS PKI Services Guide and Reference (you may not need to use PKI
Services, but there's also some good background info in this book) at
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IKYZA140/CCONTENTS?SHELF=EZ2ZO10F&DN=SA22-7693-06&DT=20050709135510
or http://makeashorterlink.com/?X1DD242AB
