My brain has apparently left, leaving no forwarding address. <grin/> You're right. There should only be a need for one set of z/OS UCB addresses to connect to each hipersocket CHPID. For some reason my brain was [not]thinking it was one set per z/Linux connection. But a hipersocket acts like a LAN connection, so everybody on the same CHPID cross communicates. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
