I seem to remember that this has been changed looong time ago. At least for "su", i.e. switch to uid=0, the ISPF edit will run as uid=0. Again, can't try myself since I don't have su authority. Also can't try to some other userid, since I don't have access to any. Would appreciate if someone with su authority would test as follows a) logon to TSO b) TSO OMVS c) su d) oedit anynewfile e) enter some text and save and exit f) ls -l anynewfile I'd expect anynewfile to be owned by uid=0. I also vaguely remember that while in ISPF edit starting ISHELL would run ISHELL under uid=0 -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
