Unfortunately, my test doesn't settle the question. We don't use logmodes
at Sas (the 'd net' command returns "***NA***"). We logon to a home-grown
solicitor program that determines the bind. It's very possible that PSERVIC
is different for the different emulators and 'real' 3270 I have access to.
And no, I don't have any way to specify a logmode. Don't think I haven't
asked. :)
