Ian, I think your problem is in the way you defined your authorized users. The AUTHFOR CONTROL file should look something like this:
ALL MAINT * 140A ADGHOPS ALL MAINT * 150A ADGHOPS ALL VSMWORK1 * 150A GOSHMADP ALL VSMWORK2 * 150A GOSHMADP ALL VSMWORK3 * 150A GOSHMADP This tells DIRMAINT that user id MAINT is authorized to act on behalf of all users on the system instead of just itself. Hope this helps.
