    Hello there,

    I got a problem with an application and confrontational ipc key uses by its many processes and users.

    This application is used by many environnement/users which are independent. The problem is, a user "a" process can do sys-calls to user "b" memory segments, which i strongly want to avoid.

    Then problem is program developpement based, but i'm wandering if AIX has such tools to make shared memory independent for users.

    Maybe the possibiliy to define ipc ranges by user ? Any idea ?

    First time i'm facing ipc problems. btw, i hope my english is clear.

    Thank you.

    Cesar.
