If it's NORENT, I hope a copy gets fetched for each LOAD, and the count for each copy should be one. If there's a common count for an LPA module, could someone perpetrate a DoS attack by issuing max-1 loads and waiting for someone else to fall into the trap? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
