[comp.os.vms] process privileges

OC.PREMA@CU20B.COLUMBIA.EDU (Prema Nair) (07/27/87)

I have noticed that some users who have been given extra priveleges
like PHY_IO, LOG_IO, and SHARE cannot set their privs in a spawned
process, unless they are DEFAULT PRIVS as well.

<< the bottomline here is that if you SET/PROC/PRIV= in your
   main process and then create the subprocess, then both your
   main and subprocess will have same privileges without assigning
   PHY_IO, LOG_IO and SHARE as default privs in UAF.
   But if you want to simply set privs in a spawned process
   without assigning default privs or not setting privs in main
   process --
