I want to tie up some loose ends on threads I opened,
to thank you (Alan!) for your help, and to ensure that the archives
include solutions and not only problems. ;-)
I was routing from the LAN to VM via a vswitch, to an IP address
of a host connected via CTC to the VM TCPIP. The problem was

Anyway:
1. Check NETSTAT GATE on both TCP/IPs.
2. Turn on MORETRACE for IPUP, IPDOWN, and ICMP on the routing system
3. Do the same for the endpoint system.
OK... here is a bunch of output:

I am still having routing problems, so it must be drawing time again.
Our old configuration looked like this:
===LAN==+== 10.0/16 ==
|OSA

| 10.0.0.7 |
| VM 4.4| +---+

there's a PRIROUTER parameter you can use when you define the vswitch
to get this exact scenario to work.
