Well yes, I am doing it with kernel 2.6.
The problem is you never know where to look - sometimes RHEL-documentation is 
lacking for specifics relating to z-series - where the Redbook excel. 
But Redbboks are mostly too old. 

Anyway, I found it now, thanks a lot to you all for your concern. 
The files reside nowhere in etc, but  in sys/bus/ ....  

regards 
Anna

This Redbook looks a bit old; the Linux information in it is for 2.4
kernels. I hope you try to implement this in RHEL4 and not in RHEL3.

This is a 2.4 specific configuration for the channel device layer,
which is no longer used in 2.6 kernels (it was used to do the hardware
configuration for your network devices). Configuration of HiperSockets
should be along the same lines as for OSA adapters; how to set up your
network devices should be explained in your RedHat installation manual
(I'm not familiar with it).

Good luck,
Cornelia
