Hi Jags, Microsoft Host Integration Server provides SNA connectivity - it is the follow-on product to Microsoft SNA server. We have a few HIS machines using SNA to our mainframes - the obvious connectivity to use is Enterprise Extender, which is APPN/HPR over IP. Configuration is fairly straightforward - if you understand APPN and IP configuration on the mainframe. On the mainframe, APPN - and an IP stack are required. You need to talk to whoever supports Communications Server on your mainframe. (I am assuming here that you have IP connectivity on your mainframe!).
Out of curiosity, why are you running such a back-level version of z/OS?

However, you might be trying to use DB2? TCPIP? FTP? SNA? You need to let us know what function your BIZTALK/MAINFRAME process will be. Have you GOOGLE'd the BIZTALK MAINFRAME keywords? I found this entry which may be close to what you are looking at doing? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163294.aspx Lizette ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and intended solely for the addressee and may also be privileged or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
