The exit is called after the LOGON command has been parsed, but before LOGON has actually begun. No passwords validated and no LOGON BY permissions have been determined yet. Shimon's patch to HCPRPI (where ESMs are born) is the only solution I see, but HCPRPI mods are inherently dangerous. 1) They ARE the security subsystem. 2) they must change as CP changes. [free advice: changes are a-comin', rollin' 'round the bend.] 3) You need HLASM Buy an ESM or forget it. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
