Marty,
Not explicitly but if setid is included when you grant allmqi authority
then mqdev does have setid authority...........Lee

Lee,

Did you give the group 'mqdev' setid permissions on the AIX qmgr?  You
need to set it there as a sort of global permission, as well as each for
queue that needs it set.
