We would like to create files in various directories on HP unix using the utl_file package

     Since what we really need is

     utl_file_dir = /directory/users/* which does not work,

     and we do not want to specify the following due to security reasons, is there any alternative methods that are available to accomplish this?

     utl_file_dir = *

Are there other techniques or work arounds?
