Bill, We've had to resolve a similar issue. We're on AIX, but maybe our solution will give you an idea. We have created two userids. The first is user-specific and has the folder privileges required to use UD. But the login is restricted so that they're forced into UD screens and can't get to the OS level. The second ID is shared (wouldn't have to be, though) and has read-only access to the UD folders but broader access to the rest of the system.
So maybe your client sets up two ID's for each of the admins that don't get full control. The first forces them to run the UD app, the second has reduced access to UD but gets them to the OS and admin stuff. Brad. > > A client of ours is running UD.
