That was it! I had just found it. I had it half right -- had the pointer to
the value, but C++ was dereferencing it, so I ended up just calling with the
value. Two levels of abstraction here: figuring out what the darned service
wants, and then figuring out how to make C++ do that. Needed unsigned int
**Ticket_options -- a pointer to a pointer.

All working, just like that. Got the profile name right on the first try.
Took about three tries, though, to get the commands right.

Thanks for all your help.

Charles

Sorry, you're on your own here ;-) no indication to which parameter might be
in error. Here's a hint though - the ticket_options parameter is a pointer
to a pointer to a value. Went wrong myself there until I re-read the manual.

Having given up on wrestling with R_GenSec's strange hybrid 64/31-bit
linkage requirements, I have turned to R_ticketserv. I have a prototype
coded up following the example for r_auditx in /usr/include/irrc.h.

I'm getting SAF Return 8, RACF Return 8, RACF Reason 4 = "Parameter list
error."

I'm wondering how I might go about debugging this. I've desk-checked the
code against the specifications in the manual. I don't claim coding
perfection, but how do I get a clue which parameter might be in error?
