Not that I know of, although the Linux IUCV driver we posted last week opens up a lot of interesting opportunities, such as connecting to the VM *RPI CP service, allowing you to implement a Linux guest as a CP external security manager. Once that's done (and the smart way to do it would be to write a *RPI to PAM bridge widget), then any authentication/authorization method available to Linux would be available for CP and Linux equally. This would be particularly helpful if the RACROUTE macro also used that interface -- I don't know for certain if it does, but Alan Altmark can probably confirm one way or another. If it does, then most of the IBM stuff would also work properly against an arbitrary AAA source. I'm still thinking a bit more about how this should be done, so don't take this as gospel. > One comment, I thought the conversation was around Omegamon > for Linux (for z-Series).

The agents they were demoing didn't do much more than 'top'. Sounds like it's time to look at it again. The XE demo was really pretty spiffy, though. -- db ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
