Well, the CPU at work actually went below 100% today. I tried compiling it and it failed. No big shocker there! I had to add 5 source statements, which basically "nop'ed" the IP_OPTIONS flag and excluded two #include files which do not exist on z/OS. I used an "#ifdef __HOS_MVS__". It then compiled and ran cleanly on my z/OS 1.4 system. I then ftp'ed the executable to my test z/OS 1.4 system. I ran a short, simple, test
PROD>nc -w 3 test.ip.address portnum <test.file And on the TEST system: TEST>nc -l -p portnum >test.file Of course, replace "test.ip.address" with the correct IP address and "portnum" with the port you are using. test.file was a simple text file. It went across with no problem. I did not even try to test all the included scripts! I don't know what will happen between an EBCDIC and ASCII host, but I'd bet that the file would remain in EBCDIC on the receiving end. I compiled this program using both the z/OS 1.4 C compiler and the OS/390 2.10 compiler (which comes with z/OS 1.4 - I don't have an OS/390 2.10 system any more). Unfortunately the listserver bounced my messaged due to size > 1,000 lines. I send a zip'ed pax'ed file to the original person. I hope he gets it. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
