Your mistake here is in the words: > When I issue the CP ID command I get:
ID (IDENTIFY) is a CMS command, not CP. The CP command that gives your userid and node is Q USERID. ID does in fact take it's node data from the SYSTEM NETID file, *if* different from the CP node: 1. THE USER ID AND NODE ARE FROM THE CP QUERY USERID COMMAND. THE DATE, TIME, AND ZONE ARE FROM THE CP QUERY TIME COMMAND. ....... IF THE SYSTEM NETID FILE IS READ AND THERE IS A CONFLICT IN NODES BETWEEN THE SYSTEM NETID FILE AND CP QUERY USERID, THE NODE IN SYSTEM NETID TAKES PRECEDENCE.
