Subject: RE: Really stupid question about z/OS HTTP server
John,
Not sure if this is what you are talking about...
I have the basic out of the box, no modifications, webserver running on
z/OS 1.6. when I enter the z/OS ip address in my browser, it
automatically gives me a standard windows server signon
screen(System_Logon) with which I need to sign on to RACF...
