Well since the original poster is not responding then I will give my
suggestion, since everyone else.
Doing the power down will not let anyone get onto the system period,
except for someone on the system console or to a device defined in QCTL.
But even at that a user could still get into JDE.
What we do here is we rename the J98INITA object in JDFOBJ to
J98INITAXX. Then we
changed our user profiles to use this newly named object, so we can
still get on into JDE. Then when we are done we rename the object back
and then change our profiles back.
I guess the thing I need to know from rkowals, is what they are trying
to accomplish or why they want to keep users out of JDE.
