With that in mind, please let me advise H that you may wish to provide a API call (with/without the SQL syntax) toI switch session authorization on a persona basis. Why? Because it could be K quite valid to switch authorization to an EXEC mode person, but without the F process going into inner mode how can you tell if this was legitimate?  B You *could* have SQL> set session authorization 'persona current';  L Rdb would then do a $persona_query on the current *zero* persona. (Who cares/ what mode it is? It's current so it must be ok)   G Anyway, If by the odd chance, you are implementing this and you plan on 7 banning non-user-mode personae then please think again.    Cheers Richard Maher   ------------------------------    Date: 17 Jun 2005 08:29:36 -0500; From: koehler@eisner.nospam.encompasserve.org (Bob Koehler) . Subject: Re: UAF> /ACCOUNT What's it used for?3 Message-ID: <Zds+E15IG8A6@eisner.encompasserve.org>   u In article <d8u8mo$sup$1@nwrdmz02.dmz.ncs.ea.ibs-infra.bt.com>, "Richard Maher" <maher_rj@hotspamnotmail.com> writes:  > Hello, > N > Can someone please tell me (or give me a pointer to the documentation about)K > what exactly VMS does with the data in the /ACCOUNT field of a Username's ! > User Authorization File record?  >  > Off the top of my head: -  > E > 1) It's stored via the ACCOUNTING utility and can be used to bundle   > Usernames together for billing > J > 2) If the UIC Group code doesn't already exist then the ACCOUNT field is, > used to create an Identifier for the Group >  > Anything else? >   
