Hello, asking for suggestions. I have a "distributed" product being installed here that I don't have much control over. Today, in a development environment, it looped trying to establish ftp connections to a z/OS LPAR. z/OS relatively quickly reached: IEA602I ADDRESS SPACE CREATE FAILED. MAXUSERS WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCEEDED
I am RTFM for a way to limit FTP from running away like this, but I thought I would ask here also. It occurs to me that this could be used as a DoS attempt. Before I was notified, others had already IPL'd, the looping entity was still there and we had lost access via SYSVIEW, EJES (standalone VTAM is really nice, thanks Ed) or anything else. I will look at procedural changes also. :) Dave Gibney Information Technology Services Washington State University ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
