Put "PrimaryInterface VMSERVER" in the PROFILE TCPIP. The default primary interface is the first link in the HOME list. It affects the value returned on gethostid(). But, more importantly in your case, it controls how INADDR_ANY is resolved when used in a bind(). Note that connect() implicitly binds to INADDR_ANY before any packets are sent. An application can choose to do its own bind() before connect(), but it's rare to see it. The above rule is overridden if you use interface-specific PORT reservation. I recommend also that you add SOURCEVIPA to AssortedParms if you have not done so already, so that the VIPA address is used on OSE1 and OSD3.
