Thank you to all who responded, you have all been a great help. I can't use Hipersocket as I am having to 'play' with CSI in z/VM. I can't buy a switch so I will try the port to port route. Am I right to assume, if I am clever(?) with the configuration, I could connect all 15 LPARS to

Thanks, Alan. I'm getting some annoying issues with RSCS printing to printers using the CUPS PostScript conversion (to non-PS datastreams). The separator page prints OK some of the time, and aborts about half-way into the page the rest of the time (and the job totally fails). From the CUPS

Hi, Richard. Go to the IBM VM download site at http://www.vm.ibm.com/download/packages/ and get the NETLIST package. It will show you how to capture the responses back from RSCS and may even do what you want right out of the box. Have a good one, too. DJ On 07/20/2011 10:28 AM, Richard Baek
