Guys

In a svrconn application channel, I just wanted to know if the SCYEXIT has (checkuser(checkuser)) and MCAUSER is ( ), SCYDATA is ( ), then the channel is secured or not?

If you say it is secured, how it is validating the data? i.e If someone from app team tries to connect to this channel, how he will be validated and allowed to connect to this channel?? In what way it is authenticating,is it against the oam permissions given to queuemanager for his functional id ?

A sample channel display details,

AMQ8414: Display Channel details.
CHANNEL(xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN)
ALTDATE(xxxxxxxxxxx) ALTTIME(xxxxxxxxxxxx)
COMPHDR(NONE) COMPMSG(NONE)
DESCR(user connections) HBINT(300)
KAINT(AUTO) MAXMSGL(4194304)
MCAUSER( ) MONCHL(OFF)
RCVDATA( ) RCVEXIT( )
SCYDATA( ) SCYEXIT(CheckUser(CheckUser))
SENDDATA( ) SENDEXIT( )
SSLCAUTH(REQUIRED) SSLCIPH( )
SSLPEER( ) TRPTYPE(TCP)

Please advice.

checkuser(checkuser)) is not an ibm supplied exit, it is "self written". if you know what the exit is doing, then you know how or if your channel is secure or not.

you got almost the same answer to your question on listserv some days ago, why do you ask the same stuff here instead of following the advice to find out what the exit is doing?

As you have MCAUSER blank, somebody who can get validated by the exit can specify to be whatever userid they want, including mqm.

If a security exit defined and you don't know what it does, you can't say anything about MCAUSER, what the client program can specify, or the effective userid that the client will run with. The security exit can override all these things.
