It would still need the system programmer to update IKJTSOxx, but the AUTHPGM section rather than AUTHTSF, but would not need the stub module and other REXX stuff.The Rexx portion of this website is no longer maintained as of 2018. If security checks are needed, they should be in the authorized program that is invoked by IKJEFTSR (your "auth function module").Īlso, if the REXX exec merely needs to call an authorized assembler routine (not subroutine) then a simple "address TSO call *(modulename)" may be simpler. Performing security checks in the stub (which runs unauthorized, and can be bypassed) are not really effective. I think you probably meant "auth function module" in that last sentence, not "auth function stub". >Depending on the capabilities of the auth function stub, you may wish to add some sort of SAF check into its logic. >(4) In the stub function program, use IKJEFTSR to invoke the auth subroutine >(3) Add the auth function module name to AUTHTSF in IKJTSOxx and get your friendly sysprog to update the system. >(2) Ensure that the auth function module is in linklist (or authorized STEPLIB/JOBLIB if you must) >(1) Write a separate non-auth stub REXX external function that processes the parameters and sets up addressability to the IRX* control blocks and handles the return data from the auth function.
