Respectfully, I'll have to disagree with that.  In my case, the user is
not enrolled, I checked with a QUERY ENROLL.  The directory is in VMSYS:
the user is only enrolled in VMSYSU:
When I log on to the user, I am able to issue an ACCESS command and get
to the files in VMSYS: .
I'm running VM 5.2. dirid= VMSYS:MAINT.PUBLIC userid=wstape
When I do a query enroll, it is a very short list and I know all of my
users, approx. 200, can access the dirid.
Did I misunderstand what you said?
Is there perhaps a PTF I need to apply?

One minor correction, PUBLIC grants access to everyone who has been
enrolled in the filepool.  If the id in question is not enrolled, it
gains no access.  They'll receive a DMSACCR1240E if they try to ACCESS
the directory, FPLSFS733E reason code 30100 if they try to read a file
with PIPEs, etc.  Not helpful if it is the filepool where all users
connect,
but useful in some situations.

And via ISFC
