450.0. "run/detach/uic/authorize use the same time" by HGOSPS::MASCOTTANG () Fri Apr 11 1997 00:03

    My customer ask that can he use $run/detach command by use of
    /authorize and /UIC at the same. If yes, how can he use it ?
    or Where can I find this material from manual ?

    At the same time, customer would like to know that when he uses
    $run/detach/uic.  What privileges does he need ?

    Any advice should be appreciated.

	/UIC & /AUTHORIZE should not be allowed together but they are. If you use these together and the image you run is LOGINOUT.EXE, the UIC of the created process will be the UIC of the username executing the RUN. The code first creates the process with the UIC in /UIC and then sees the /AUTHORIZE and modifes the process with the quotas, uic & rights of the username executing RUN. I suspect you need the impersonation services in the latest version of VMS. Unfortunately there is no way to create a process with a different username with the DCL RUN command. Jilly

	To create a detached process running under a different username, you need 2 steps. First formulate the RUN/DETACHED/AUTHORIZE command as if executed by the target user and place it in a command procedure. Execute the procedure as a batch job with SUBMIT/USER=target. Privilege required is CMKRNL. John Gillings, Sydney CSC

What privileges does he need ? $ RUN/DETACH by itself requires no privileges. $ RUN/UIC requires DETACH privilege DETACH privilege is an "all" category privilege. $ RUN/UIC/DETACH is a redundant form of $ RUN/UIC reflecting historical cruft. See a recent topic regarding the use of /AUTHORIZE with /UIC, which does not work as expected.
