Re: Access issue on system volume
to begin with: WELCOME to the VMS forum!
Let me try if I understand your problem correctly.
The users have access problems on files in their SYS$LOGIN ("home dir" , in Unix speak)
Or are those procedures calling files from other environments, which give the issues?
ANd you (they?) have set W:RE access to all files and directories?
Giving users SYSPRV (VERY diasadvisable!!) overcomes the Insufficient Privilege errors.
Two possibilities: they forgot some important files or directories (maybe even on another drive!)
Or: Some files have AVL protection activated. That protection takes precedense over the SOGW mask, but is overruled by privilege.
Enable Auditing, setting alarm on file access failure, and monitor which files are reported. Check (and repair) the access security on those.
If you need more specific info, please ask.
Success.
Proost.
Haveo one on me.

Re: Access issue on system volume
This helped us resolve the issue.
I had to set file/prot=w:re on 000000.dir
on the disk users were having problems accessing files in sub folders.
We still do not know how this was removed a week ago.
Again thank you very much.

Re: Access issue on system volume
SYSPRV will override most access checks, and thus should not be used on a general basis.
I would suspect that something was changed, either in the file protections OR in the protections of the higher level directories. Without knowing which file(s) are involved, it is impossible to be specific.
Turning on auditing, as has been described in previous responses, is one option. Another option is including a SET VERIFY command in the LOGIN.COM file to display the commands as they are executed.
