No. RACF can secure a PORT in that it can disallow a "server" to "listen" on that port. However, RACF cannot do any validation for incoming connection requests. That would be up to the "server" to do. It appears, from my short reading, that the z/OS "firewall technologies" could be use to restrict incoming connection requests. But, as all things IBM, it appears to be complicated to set up. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
