I agree with Luis, using the ISC for security role mapping is more convenient and efficient.

I think both options could work, but I prefer using the Security role to user/group mapping in the Integrated Solutions Console for easier management.

But wouldn't it be easier to use the Integrated Solutions Console (ISC) to map security roles to user/groups?

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. IBM loves their proprietary tools, but sometimes the command line is just more efficient.

Answer C seems the most straightforward. Why bother with text editors or command-line tools when you can use the official IBM tools?

I prefer using the EARExpander command to access the ibmconfig folder, it gives me more control over the application's security settings.
