The rework have saved me a lot of work, to enhance it even more ;o) The biggest problem can be the search engines/spiders, which will find this version 2.0 of the program, so newbies will download the source instead of the maintained version. So maybe I should send a mail here and on www.MQSeries.Net when there are new versions released ? Personally I think of such mails as spam, your oppinion wanted here :o) I'm quite happy that Sid did a redesign, I'm shure that the version soon vill be available from my website. I just have to run it thru my testcases to see if it work, I shure it works ;o) When I look a year back, and see how BlockIP have changed, and the requirements, from just a simple conname filtering program to what it is today. I see that it gives www.mrmq.dk a lot of traffic, so it have been a great success, and it know that the z/OS version of the original exit have been used for design base in some vendor packages. The language used here might offend some persons...... Politeness please here :-o Kind regards Jxrgen www.mrmq.dk the author of BlockIP >From: "Wyatt, T.
