Thanks Steve and Peter. I used the strcpy and bang! it worked.
Tomorrow, I start playing with the code to see what I can control (secure). _________________________ Regards, Dick Killian MQ Administrator & Adabas DBA Rochester Gas & Electric Corp (585) 771-6049 "GIES, STEVE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] M> cc: Sent by: MQSeries Subject: Re: [MQSERIES] channel security exit List <MQSERIES@AKH-WIE N.AC.AT> 11/25/2002 02:52 PM Please respond to MQSeries List Richard Try using this code instead: strcpy(mqcd.MCAUserIdentifier, "mqm"); - Steve Gies -----Original Message----- From: Richard Killian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 25, 2002 11:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: channel security exit I have another question related to security. I am creating my first Channel Security Exit on AIX. I don't know 'C' and have had one of our programmers get me through this far. I have read the channel exit chapters in MQSeries Intercommunication so many times that now my brain goes numb as soon as I look at it. What I am trying to do is to use the exit to modify a SVRCONN Channel's MCA User Id based on who or what is accessing the channel. (this might or might not be a good idea) My understanding from the manual is that the security exit can set the MCA User Id; however, I am not getting past the compile. code: mqcd.MCAUserIdentifier = "mqm"; compile error: "mqsecexit.c", line 26.1: 1506-025 (S) Operand must be a modifiable lvalue. Any ideas?? _________________________ Regards, Dick Killian MQ Administrator & Adabas DBA Rochester Gas & Electric Corp (585) 771-6049 Instructions for managing your mailing list subscription are provided in the Listserv General Users Guide available at http://www.lsoft.com Archive: http://vm.akh-wien.ac.at/MQSeries.archive Instructions for managing your mailing list subscription are provided in the Listserv General Users Guide available at http://www.lsoft.com Archive: http://vm.akh-wien.ac.at/MQSeries.archive Instructions for managing your mailing list subscription are provided in the Listserv General Users Guide available at http://www.lsoft.com Archive: http://vm.akh-wien.ac.at/MQSeries.archive
