Hi Doug,
Thanks for this good news. As I mentioned in our conversation a short while
ago, the print jobs for which this is relevant will be submitted through a
kerberized lpr interface. The userid information should therefore be
available to the operating system. The system on which we currently handle
these sorts of issues is VM/ESA (recently renamed by IBM to z/VM) rather than
MVS. Ultimately however the jobs will be coming from various distributed
unix systems.
