Hi Stephen Since VM/ESA 370 mode, I don't think I ever had HOME statements for anything other than my VM system. That includes last week when we were on z/VM 5.1. Now, I think I'm being told that I need a HOME statement for each link statement. And now told that these few dozen HOME statements, all need IP addresses that don't duplication any of my HOSTs. So I'm really being dense here.... How, or what matches up the IP address in the HOME entry to the IP address used by the HOST? And if there is nothing that matches the two together, why have the entry in the HOST section to begin with?
It's really going to be a "eureka" moment, if and when I understand this. <G> Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1/17/2007 12:42 PM >>> You see the HOME statement. You see the 192.168.099.227 in the HOME statement. That must not be the same as the address of the Linux system. It is the same. I must be different. Two people have told you this. Maybe, if three do you will believe it. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > It is different.
