Thanks Rich ... I was really hoping for this since we're replacing a Microsoft HIS server with ICC attachment of our Telnet clients. Since IBM sort of insistent on two OSA cards we figured why not. No use in incurring Telnet overhead directly in the VSE system if you have an alternative. Since each OSA has two physical ports we still have a two QDIO defined ports available for other IP releated functions. -- Kevin Corkery Independent Consultant Voorhees, New Jersey -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Rich Smrcina <rsmrcina@wi.rr.com> > Hardcoded IPs are *not* required.
