Sorry to get back with this issue so late. I ran the JCL given to me by Patrick, and these are the results. Where do I find the "GetAddrInfo Failed: RetVal = -1, RC = 1, Reason = 0x78AE1004 " message explanation? Has anyone seen this? If so what is it telling me? TIA ~~Carol

An incorrent name would have resulted in "Non- existent domain". "No response from server" means your name server didn't give any response at all (or not quickly enough). You'll probably have to talk the person that supports your name server. Or maybe persons, since you may have a heirarchy of name servers. If you can, the best thing you can do to get help on this is to build some JCL that will reference this host name in a batch job (EXEC PGM=PING,PARM="ftp.aa.bb.com" would be good) and include a "//SYSTCPT DD SYSOUT=*". This will give you a RESOLVER trace of the name resolution process. That's one of MVS TCP/IP's best kept secrets. BTW #1, in your original posting you said someone said "... their name not being in a file at my site". They assumed you were using a host name file rather than a name server. You might be using both, and there is a whole grundle of ways this "file" can be provided (MVS datasets that require a weird TSO preprocessor, a bunch of different HFS files depending on your release of z/OS). And there are options that say whether the host flles or name servers are processed first. Before digging into that, get that RESOLVER trace. BTW #2, Somebody suggested including a SYSTCPD DD statement. DO NOT do this without first checking with the person or persons responsible for your MVS TCP/IP configuration. With luck your configuration is set up so you cannot do any harm with incorrect stuff in your TCPDATA, but it may not be. Ours isn't. :-( Pat O'Keefe ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
