DTCOBE005E -> DTCOBE0055E. B ut I could find neither one in LookAt. z/VM TCP/IP has numerous undocumented messages. Every time we complain we get the same response "which would you rather have us do, document messages or write new code". Open an incident with IBM. And include the full message text. Maybe they will get tired of answering the same questions over and over and document the messages. -OR- Go read the restrictions of what can and cannot be changed with OBEYFILE in TCP/IP Planning and Customization. Some things cannot be changed, and must NOT b e in the file supplied to OBEYFILE. In particular, it cannot handle a full PROFILE TCPI P.
