All,

I have a question, we have a COBOL Tcpip client, server hybrid. 
We drive with the destination ip address or dns host name and port.
The issue is this....

1. Destination is a host 'abcdef' for example pointing to ip address 
192.168.1.222
2. Host 'abcdef' goes down, tcpip client goes into recovery by gethostbyname 
and 
    Ezacic08 ...
3. Now host 'abcdef' points to 192.168.1.221
     A. Dig abcdef confirms its 221
4. Gethostbyname returns rc=0
5. Ezacic08 fails the returning address is blank.

I should after after the ip changes to 221 , I can recycle client and it finds 
221

Is my logic wrong, that all you have to do is re drive gethostbyname and then 
ezacic08 ?
This is written in CICS sockets.

Any help is much appreciated.
