We have a separate project for NFS to support other applications. But, the manual for the program product in question does not mention an NFS interface. So, would it be reasonable to interpret your advice to say that you have considerable experience working with this requirement and there is no known way to do it with out NFS or some other product component inbetween USS and AIX doing some pathing or routing or connecting or CLISTing or something else to support the file access?

If so, you need to do some configuration on z/OS beyond codig JCL. And, unfortunately, z/OS does not support the pseudo-mount point /net/hostname/... available on several other UNIX systems such as Solaris. -- gil -- StorageTek INFORMATION made POWERFUL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
