[snip] Fred: you might verify the method of transferring files ie. are they downloading through their 3270 emulator? I recall, "more than a decade ago", a client/user having similar time-out problems when transferring a large file to the workstation via IND$FILE. (invoked directly by the emulator) It appeared (I *still* have no idea how) the underlying mechanism was 'printing' through the 'screen' and they were getting the TSO '***' marker when the 'screen' was full. They moved to using ftp instead. (and got *big* through-puts as a bonus) The emulator download/upload was just more convenient. ----------> signature = 6 lines follows <-------------- Neil Duffee, Joe SysProg, U d'Ottawa, Ottawa, Ont, Canada telephone:1 613 562 5800 x4585 fax:1 613 562 5161 mailto:NDuffee of uOttawa.ca http:/ /aix1.uottawa.ca/ ~nduffee "How *do* you plan for something like that?"
