     This does sound a lot better that the .netrc approach (which we've been

What level of info do you need? If you're already using digital certificates then you have some basic info and infrastructure setup already.

If you're not using them, then
(a) you should be; but
(b) you'll need to do a lot more reading and experimenting.

Some information sources that should help:
(a) RACF Security Administrator's Guide chapter 21, at http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/ICHZA760/21.0?SHELF=EZ2ZO10F&DT=20050713233738 or http://makeashorterlink.com/?P44925C6C

(b) z/OS PKI Services Guide and Reference (you may not need to use PKI Services, but there's also some good background info in this book) at http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IKYZA140/CCONTENTS?SHELF=EZ2ZO10F&DN=SA22-7693-06&DT=20050709135510 or http://makeashorterlink.com/?X1DD242AB

(c) The RACF Presentations page at http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/racf/presentations.html where you will find presentations on RACF and the Digital Certificate and some on security for z/OS Communications Server

(d) The z/OS Communications Server IP Configuration Guide and Reference books:
