Why does it only drop my z/OS 1.4, 1.5, 1.8 and 1.9 sessions? Perhaps the firewall already has exceptions for your non-z/OS systems? If you see FIN packets flowing in both directions at the same time, you can be certain that it is a firewall doing the closing. Each side usually sees what it thinks is a normal close by the other end closed the connection - sneaky firewall. If the FW folks are disclaiming responsibility, bring in the network techs to get sniffer traces on both sides of the firewall. That is the only way to be 100% sure. --- Alan Altmark IBM z/VM Development ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
