59.0. "FOCUS SU question" by MEMV04::TURMEL (Kathy DTN 232-2524 ACO/E50) Tue Apr 19 1988 17:44

    Can you bring FOCUS SU up from an account other that where the
    application software resides ?  
    
    I have a FOCUS application that resides on DSK1:ACCOUNT1.  For
    production purposes, we want to move the application software into
    read-only directories without any account name associated with them.
    Will I be able to bring up the Synch Machine from DSK1:ACCOUNT2
    ?
    
    I come from and IBM/CMS environment and last I heard, you couldn't
    do this.  How about in the DEC/VMS environment ?
    
    Any info. will be appreciated  !

59.1SU Server and Access to FilesNRPUR::CUSACKWed Apr 20 1988 14:278
    The SU server process gets its access rights from the account that
    starts it up.  Generally, the account that starts the SU server should
    be the owner of the files, but as long as the account that starts
    the server process has read, write, execute, and delete priveleges
    for the file, what you want to do should work fine.
