Verify that all WebSphere administrators have been added to the group that owns the server's configuration directory, which will grant them read but not write access. Ensure that the user that owns the server's configuration directory is a non-login user.

Create a single, non-login, user ID that owns the server's configuration directory. Add any WebSphere administrators to the group that owns the server's configuration directory, which will automatically give them read access to the server's configuration, but not write access. Use sudo and the /etc/sudoers file to allow these administrators to elevate their privilege to the user ID that owns the server's configuration directory when write access is required.
