Hi,
I am doing and EXEC CICS LINK in a batch program and is trying to execute a program in CICS. But the EXEC CICS LINK is not working, when the connection is given as specific with a netname. The 'USER=' parameter was given the netname and netname was defined with authority in security. It gave an error of RESP=88 abd RESP2=203. There are 4 reasons listed for this, but none of them applies.
So the connection was made generic and it works wonderfully. But now the issue is, it has become so insecure and everyone (any CICS user) can use that. Although parameters was defined by ATTCHSEC parameter, it doesn't restrict any user. So, it boils down to 'NOT GOOD FOR PRODUCTION'.

Does anyone know how to make specific connection work with an EXEC CICS LINK or to import security for a generic connection?

Help much appreciated! Good day!
