hi, what VMS priv's should an account have in order to perform the transfer user functions? the customer wants to transition this functionality from the ALl-IN-1 manager to an administrator. right now the administrator account has only NETMBX and TMPMBX VMS priv's. is just the OA$ADMIN identifier enough? ALL-IN-1 2.4, VMS 5.5-2 thanks - ann

Hello Ann, I don't have a V2.4 system to hand - the usual apology! - but from memory, Admins have always been able to handle TU - because most of the real work is done via the Manager and Transfer accounts. If you check in the script OA$LIB:SM_NOMINATE, you'll find the things that are required to be an Admin in V2.4, and I think you'll find that OA$ADMIN is the key. You'll see that it checks the identifier, then grants it. Nothing more should be required to do TU, if the calling account has been nominated admin in the normal way. I believe that it is a principle that we work to here, that admins should not require any special VMS privs. to do their work. Cheers DaveT | |||||
