This article discusses the user profile parameters for setting
up menu security.
The server provides several user profile parameters that you can use to
implement menu access control:
- Use Initial menu (INLMNU) parameter to control
what menu the user first sees after the user signs on.
- Use Initial program (INLPGM) parameter to run a
setup program before the user sees a menu, or you can use this parameter to
restrict a user to running a single program.
- Use Limit capabilities (LMTCPB) parameter to restrict
a user to a limited set of commands. This parameter also prevents the user
from specifying a different initial program or menu on the Sign On display.
The LMTCPB parameter only limits commands that are entered from the command
line.
For more information on these user profile parameters, see "Initial menu," "Initial
program," and "Limit Capabilities" in the iSeries Security Reference.
