Hi Scott,

Like Richard said, you need access to TCPMAINT's 592 disk.
Does your Z/VM TCPIP stack have access to the internet??
On the cms userid you are using to test, enter this command,

The MAKBUF is returning an RC of -3

Try MAKEBUF instead of MAKBUF; rc = -3 is command not found.
Wouldn¹t the close command be CLOSE OPERATOR CONS? Not CONS OPERATOR...
