Parameters

userid/keyringname
Allows multiple FTP users to share one key ring owned by another user. The keyringname value is the SAF key ring created by using the RACF® ADDRING function.
Restrictions:
  • The userid value must be the user that actually owns the key ring.
  • All users must have READ and UPDATE access to the IRR.DIGTCERT.LISTRING resource in the FACILITY class when using an SAF key ring owned by another user.

Examples

KEYRING /u/user33/keyring/key.kdb
KEYRING user33/ftpring
KEYRING ftpring

Guideline: If the userid is omitted, the current user ID is used.
