3.2.1 Securing Inbound Services

Complete the following tasks to enable the security feature for each inbound service.

  1. Set up transaction security through the mainframe with the security administrator.
  2. Specify SECURITY=Y in the Inbound Services screen for each service you want to secure. When SECURITY=Y, the gateway attempts to start user programs with the username that initiated the request as reported by the remote system.

    If SECURITY=N, the gateway starts user programs using the gateway’s user ID (as controlled by the socket listener).
