I don't know how much you're "in to" what can be done, but there are some nice(!) facilities that fork() can leverage. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.bpxb200/bpxenv.htm You can use the C language setenv() to set a number of UNIX environment variables with can affect the results of fork() if you have the right RACF authorities set up. _BPX_JOB NAME can set the name of the fork'd address space (such as to the user's name) _B PX_USERID can set the RACF owner for the fork'd address space. The address space doing the fork() needs some "heavy" RACF authorities for this. > > Thanks > Robin > > -- Windows. A funny name for a operating system that doesn't let you see anything.
