Does this mean that for the ETC HOSTS file that you copy the ETC SAMPSERV file on the 592 disk to ETC HOSTS on the same disk and then modify it?

The doc is wrong. It was a bogus copy-n-paste of the [rather vague] information on HOSTS LOCAL, which you *do* copy to 198, customize, MAKESITE, then copy the resulting *INFO files to the 592. (sigh) Thanks for finding this. All name resolution is done in the *user's* virtual machine, not in the stack. So the user must have access to the file. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
