Frank If you are using a 5.1 client or later the userid of the process (typically the logged on userid on NT) is passed.
Use the strmqtrc command on the client side to start the client trace. Try to connect, then look in the directory: mqclient_root\ERRORS, and find the AMQ*.TRC file. This trace file will tell you the userid that is failing. On AIX, that userid must be given explicit authority to the resources, or be made a member of a group that has authority to the queue manager and queues ect. (SMITTY USER) not /etc/group. Id advise against using the mqm group unless the user is an mq administrator.

On the client machine, I'm logged in as a member of the mqm group and I'm running amqsputc to test the connection. When MCAUSER on the channel is left blank, I get a 2035 error. When MCAUSER is set to any valid member of mqm, the connection attempt is successful. This says to me that the authorities are fine for the qmgr and the queue, but that the qmgr is having trouble identifying the logged in user as a member of the mqm group. The /etc/group file was initially not set up properly to read from the global NIS map, but even after this was fixed, the results are the same. Can anyone offer some advice as to what might be happening here?
