I was finally able to get it to tell me what broadcast address it was
using, and yes infact it is now using 101.255. I cannot tell you if it was
using 100.255 previously with the 255.255.255.0 NM.

Your broadcast address looks right to me. I don't know if I can explain
this well, but I will try.
The subnet mask that you specified says that the subnet has a 9 bit host
address. Thus the last 9 bits of the IP address specifies the host on the
subnet. The broadcast address on this subnet has the last 9 bits on. In
general the broadcast address has all bits of the host part on. Therefore
the broadcast address is the upper 23 bits of the IP for the subnet with
all ones for the host part, which is 137.70.101.255. The 101 is due to the
fact that the last bit is on for the broadcast address. Note that 101 in
binary is 01100101 <- that last bit is one. A 100 would be 01100100.
Now if you are sure that the broadcast address is wrong, then your subnet
mask must be wrong.

Subject: Re: Linux NFS shares and Windoze interoperability
I have been unable to get that to actually see the linux instances on the
mainframe. If sees the linux PC in my cube which is also running NFS, and
it put that in the 'default lan' group.
When I attempt to do the 'add' part it pops up a box saying add/remove NFS
LAN's, so I click add.
I then get a box that says Add Broadcast Lan (not what I would expect but I
go with it)
I wants a name to call it, so I put in nokomis. My linux guest running NFS.
Then It wants "IP address of any Host in the LAN" - meaning what exactly?
Dunno. I put the IP address of 'nokomis' in there
Then it wants the subnet mask, and I enter that. Then it somehow gets the
broadcast address by itself, and from what I see it is getting it wrong, as
it's on a diff subnet.
The IP address of nokimis is 137.70.100.134, and the net mask is
255.255.254.0 but the broadcast address is being returned as
137.70.101.255.
As I vaguely recall, the 101 had somethign to do with the VIPA setup on our
OSA cards... I am confused here.

James, since you said you installed Unix services, do you have an 'NFS
network' entry under 'Entire Network' (under 'My Network Places')?
IOW, My Network Places --> Entire Network --> NFS Network. If so did you
right click to add a new entry under NFS Network? I used the static
IP of my Linux machine when I config'd it for NFS Network. I also made
the necessary changes to the Linux side in /etc/exports and all worked
well,
albeit very slowly. I wasn't going to implement this into production, so
I wasn't to worried about the speed. But since the subject has been
brought up
does anyone know why the reponse time would be so slow?
