Authority Problem with WRKDOMSVR Command

Technote Number: 1103046


Problem:
This can occur if somebody has granted the QNOTES user profile more authority
than it should have. By default, the QNOTES user profile should only have
*IOSYSCFG special authority. In the above case, someone has given QNOTES
*ALLOBJ and *JOBCTL special authority. The STRDOMSVR, ENDDOMSVR, and WRKDOMSVR
commands use adopted authority. They adopt the authority of the owner of the
program that those commands run.

For example, the STRDOMSVR commands runs the QNNINSDS program in library
QNOTES. The QNNINSDS program is owned by user profile QNOTES. Whoever issues
a STRDOMSVR command, will temporarily adopt whatever authorities that QNOTES
has. In this case, QNOTES has *ALLOBJ and *JOBCTL, so they have enough
authority to start the Domino server.

In this case, revoke *ALLOBJ and *JOBCTL from the QNOTES user profile.

CHGUSRPRF USRPRF(QNOTES) SPCAUT(*IOSYSCFG)

Once you finish running the above command, a DSPUSRPRF QNOTES should display as
follows (Figure 1):
(notice the Special authority field is only *IOSYSCFG now.)
