<snip> Does it still require a direct Internet connection between the user's mainframe and the CA server? That is a "drop dead" for us. To use ShopzSeries, I must use DownloadDirector on my Linux desktop to get the data to it. I then use NFS to get the data to the mainframe.
-- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT </snip> John, One of the pre-reqs is to connect to the CA FTP Server, for CA software. The door appears to be open to install other ISV products (SMPE) also, still playing with it and learning UNIX and the GUI are a lot of fun. Sort of annoys the windows people we have a MF based server with a GUI interface. The perks with this job never end :-) Thanks, Kevin Fletcher (317) 817-3545 Transition Coordinator z/OS, DB2, AS400 support Conseco, LLC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
