Ron,

  If your emulator is assigned a specific slot on a HMC/ICC then the slot
on the ICC has to be reset.
  If you are going directly into TCPIP and there are no specific exits
that assign you to a particular terminal then I am not sure what your
problem could be.

  Usually the first case above is the problem.

Ray,

When I wrote:

Sorry, I meant that for LNXADMIN (the sysadmin's Linux on each member LPAR), 
not LNXMAINT (the CMS machine designed for a common 191 disk on all Linux 
virtual machines).

If you make LNXMAINT an IDENTITY, you will have to maintain four common disks, 
not just one.  Why make things more complex?

I would recommend going back to the original USER directory entry.  If you are 
getting an error on the other members, post the error message(s) here and we'll 
figure it out.
