The STC could run unauthorized, using mechanisms setup by the authorized comms task. However, as you're running work on behalf of various end-users, I hope you're authenticating those users and running the work under the proper end-user identity in each case. And that would probably require authorization of the STC. It is a very tricky situation to manage properly and without introducing either system integrity or security issues. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
