I can see already there is a very high probability that we are talking about TELNET here, namely port number 23, and I am going to assume it is the SNA-oriented TELNET (TN3270E) and I am going further to assume that the application is TSO. If all this is correct, the answer is simply "Yes". If I make yet another assumption, namely that having been told that the answer is "Yes", you would like actually to know *how*, recalling what was worked out from an earlier thread ... Well, I dug into my archives and I discovered that earlier thread and here the real mysteries start! The question was asked in August of this year by someone who appears to have precisely your name! Apart from noting that, yet again, the question appeared only in Google Groups - but from a different e-mail address - and not in the IBM-MAIN archives, it's not worth trying to find an explanation but merely to give the URL of the answer I gave last time: http://aime.ua.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1108&L=ibm-main&F=&S=&X=6645E57B6F8F30213D&Y=chrismason%40belgacom.net&P=685510 Chris Mason - prino robert.ah.pr...@gmail.com Sat, 12 Nov 2011 02:40:12 -0800 (PST) Is there a way of going from the output of NETSTAT, i.e. TCPIP 0000076F 192.168.1.89..23 21x.4x.11x.239..4431 Establsh to the userid of the user. I'm on a dynamic IP address, which means that, thanks to the inability of the "Initiate Workstation Connection" pop-up to accept a symbolic IP address, I have to change the IP address every 24 hours. If there was a way to get from the output of NETSTAT to userid, the process could be automated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
