Hi Adam, We're running 5.4, so Enabler won't help. :( I think I agree with your assessment of an initial deployment being a "giant pain". -Mike

I'm trying to follow the instructions in the TCP/IP Planning Guide, but I have to confess as a first-timer they are a bit overwhelming. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Well, the fact that it's a giant pain is sort of the reason we developed the SSL Enabler. The bad news is that this depends on the version of z/VM you're running. The Enabler itself is free; we'll sell you ongoing support for it if you would like; contact me offline if you're interested. If you're running z/VM 5.3, http://www.sinenomine.net/products/vm/sslenabler is what you want. You will need to provide us proof of your current VM license. If you're running 3.1-5.2, the licensing stuff is the same but I need to get you a different download which is not currently linked on the web site. Talk to me offline. If you're running 5.4, it's no longer Linux-based and thus the Enabler won't help you. Adam
