Let's assume you have subnet mask 255.255.255.0. 140.185.101.1 is a class B address, so we replace the first TWO octets of BOTH the address and mask with zeroes. Mask = 0.0.255.0 IP = 0.0.101.1 AND the two together and you get the subnet value: 0.0.101.0 > how do I figure this out in the future... Starting with z/VM 5.2, you switch to use the new syntax that avoids all that ... stuff. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
