EXPERT RESPONSE
First of all, I encourage you to contact the vendor
regardless of whether this tip helps you or not. Unless all of us let
vendors know that their security implementation is unacceptable, they
are going to continue to foist these problems upon us. Until you can
get an acceptable scheme from the vendor, you might try creating a
program that is owned by a profile with sufficient authority to
stop/start the processes. Have the program adopt (change the user
profile parameter to user profile (*OWNER)) authority. Then the sole
purpose of this program is to start/stop the processes. You could have
two different programs - one for each process - if you need different
people to perform the start from those who perform the stop. ==================================
