this brings back a faint memory, though I can assure you our problem symptoms were identical. we went through the entire diagnosis, as did you, exactly in the same sequence. this occurred when we installed zos 1.4 several years ago.
the solution (here's the sketchy part) involved the location of the PING load module, relative to its LPA location. one of our MVS mavens "fixed it" . sorry I can't be more specific though I know the security systems weren't part of the problem. I'll dig through my old archives and see if I can find something more concrete. tb -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pommier, Rex R.
