Ewald, I don't know the details of your trace, but this looks similar to an incident that occured here recently. This may be a shot in the dark, but it's worth a try. Make a small change to your PROFILE TCPIP to include a parmameter called 'OVERRIDEPRECEDENCE' under the ASSORTEDPARMS section like so: ASSORTEDPARMS PROXYARP RESTRICTLOWPORTS OVERRIDEPRECEDENCE ENDASSORTEDPARMS In our client's problem, FTP started giving OPEN TIMEOUTs to z/OS FTPD IP addresses *only*...other FTP sessions opened just fine it seemed. Nothing changed, yada yada...same thing customers always told me when I was at IBM :) Though, I still suspect that something in z/OS TCPIP was altered that indirectly affected the precidence values. E.g expecting an 'immediate', a '1' whatever they use. I'd be curious if this is the same issue. Let me know. Doug

I have no access to the AIX side so I must ask the admin on monday. Another curiosity: my VSE system on the same subnet (different OSA) has no problems. Thanks Ewald
