I've never heard of disabling certain commands in VESOFT security (and I use to
work there).  You can restrict anything you want in the security menus, but
there is nothing in security/3000 that does anything with MPE commands in terms
of trapping, allowing or disallowing.

I am surprised that no one mentioned VeSoft's facility for disallowing
certain commands.

You would also want to do something for chdir, as well.

While I like the UDC approach, except for what it does to HELP CHGROUP,
we password certain sensitive groups that the authorized user is home to
(so that they don't need to specify the password, thus granting that
user transparent access). As for the UDC, if you provide no commands for
unauthorized users, they get the prompt back. No message, no error, just
the prompt.
