Richard, In answer to your earlier post saying you definitely had no "transaction program profile" for AFTP defined, I was going to mention that not all APPC/MVS server tasks needed to be started by the APPC/MVS scheduler using "transaction program profiles". However, since we are taking here about an address space being mysteriously started, this isn't really relevant.
Your latest test may well be definitive concerning the absence of APPC/MVS. The only thing that worries me slightly is that - as far as I remember APPC/MVS - the started task ASCH is the one responsible for scheduling address spaces. Now I'm getting way out of my depth. Nevertheless let me try something for sager heads to expand on perhaps. Maybe what is happening is that some program running in its own address space is "spawning" other address spaces using the same service that the program ASBSCHIN, the program in the APPC/MVS ASCH procedure, uses. Thus your suggestion that ATX needs expanding may be sort-of right. Maybe it is wrong to associate ATX exclusively with APPC/MVS, more precisely the transaction/address space scheduling performed by the ASCH procedure, and it should simply be associated with "attached transaction program" where this refers to the service which happens to be used by ASCH. Looking back though the thread - which I should have done before jumping in with the AFTP suggestion :-( , I see Rex Pommier is suggesting that UNIX does this for the FTP server - I guess this might be how the fork() call is implemented. Incidentally your post of "Tues, Mar 7 2006 8:43 pm" mentions using the NETSTAT command in order to check on the use of APPC/MVS. This just isn't the appropriate command. It is exclusively for the IP side of the Communications Server product and not the SNA side.
