Although we will be talking between the 2 systems
over the Intranet (via the OSA's) I think we could put enough protection
in place to cover the most obvious security issues.
With what we want to achieve there would be a number
of advantages of using REXEC but the problem, at least as far as I perceive
it, is managing the calls.
My understanding of REXEC (so far) is where a userid
is logged on to run a command and logs off afterwards. I am not sure if
there is anyway to use it differently? The problem with managing this from
my point of view is that we could have many calls happening simultaneously
(it would be a user service function) so we would need a pool of userid's
on which to run the command. Then it would be difficult to know which userid
to use in the REXEC command.
Maybe this shows my limited knowledge of how REXEC
works?
