Thanks, Mark. Apparently JAVA is a prerequisite for using SMP/E receive fromnts according to the user's guide. The memo to user's extension and the internet delivery checklist seemed to indicate that the only reason for needing java was to do the hash checking and the receive would just keep going without this particular check. Guess I read it wrong (not the first time that's happened...).
As far as the SMPJHOME and SMPCPATH DD's, I have the DDDEF's set up, but I thought they would just be used for the hash calculation. SMPJHOME is pointing to where JAVA will be if I ever get it installed... Well, back to IBMLink for finding java. Rex > <snip> Download the non-SMP/E version of JAVA to start with. Pick up a current version of the SMP/E 3.4 user manual and read about internet service retrieval. Make sure you set up the CLIENT DD correctly or add SMPJHOME and SMPCPATH DDs to your JCL or DDDEFs. Then try again... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
