Well, RACROUTE would go via the VM external security manager interfaces to RACF (if RACF is your ESM), and if RACF/VM is configured to consult a shared database with RACF on z/OS, then you'd end up with the same effect. I don't think RACF on z/OS plugs into the VM ESM interface at all, even if it is running as a VM guest (which is too bad -- it'd be a nice feature). VSE may be a different story -- they're a lot more pragmatic about VM support than the z/OS guys are. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
