Thanks Dave, I'll have a look at pigiron, the parm lists certainly are messy. The call worked; at least the socket recv returned 20 bytes. Now that I have confirmed that the VM side of things is set up properly I'll have a closer look at the client.

Did the actual Check_authorization call work or fail? Did it return any data? Since you're invoking the SMAPI routines from outside of z/VM, you might be interested in the following interface package: http://pigiron.sourceforge.net/ It handles all of the messy details of making the calls, building the parameter lists correctly, parsing the returned data, etc. DJ Eric Spencer wrote: > I am playing with the SMAPI interface via the socket API.
