Thanks. After RTFMing many many MF's this clarity is appreciated... <snip> Lat I knew, Hipersockets supported only IP. You can easily get TCP/IP to use it, but then you have to get VTAM to use IP - hence Enterprise Extender, hence APPN connectivity.
Don't be mislead by the Hipersockets support parms in VTAM. VTAM provides the DataLink Control support for both SNA (i.e., VTAM) and TCP/IP. The Hipersockets support (Internal QDIO) is strictly for TCP/IP (unless things change a lot while I wasn't watching.) </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
