Hello,
  Few weeks I installed TCP/IP V2R2 on VM/SP 6.16. We have the following
problem:
After TELNET to IBM in line mode server closes connection after about
17 mins. Doesn't matter what he or she is doing. Connection is being
closed, user becomes force-disconnected. It doesn't happen
while working in 3270 mode (with TN3270). I have no idea.
Any advice ?

     Thanks for any help - Jarek.

I tried telneting to HERMES.MERIT.EDU but received a 'Foreign Host rejected

I remember someone posting that they had created such a
client, but I can't recall the details and now can't find
the reference. I'll check around and see what I can turn
up. In the meantime, you might check out the C language
archie client (available for anonymous ftp from most archie
sites - try archie.sura.net or archie.ans.net) as it may
or may not compile in this environment. To find out, just
read the Makefile as I recall that this program is very
well documented and will compile on a gazillion different
platforms. You may be in luck.

My bosses were concerned about the performance hit of playing router,
so we ran some tests. Our tests had 0-4 users telnet into the secondary
TCPIP so that TCPIP1 was playing router and TCPIP2 was supporting the
telnet session. Each user continuously performed full-screen scrolls
while we monitored the CPU usage of the two TCPIPs.

The results: TCPIP1 and TCPIP2 used about the same resources while
performing their respective functions; i.e., playing router and
supporting telnet consume approximately the same number of cycles.
Thus, a person who telnets into TCPIP2 uses twice the CPU
(router+telnet) as someone who telnets into TCPIP1 (excluding the
business which they are really trying to get done).

We are running HAL v1.0.

There are two telnet sites mentioned in "The Whole Internet

	consultant.micro.umn.edu
	gopher.uiuc.edu

BTW, the above is a terrific book - highly recommended.

We are running a BTI with VM/XA w/o SNA. We run one BTI in 'native' mode
using a replacement TCPIP driver available from U.Texas at Dallas
(known as the 'Lippke Driver' after Dave Lippke, its author).

We also have a BTI we are testing with some firmware we purchased
from BTI to allow us to run as a CETI device so that we can run a
'stock' FAL driver (and therefore run our TCPIP SVM in XA-mode
to use vstore > 16M - the Lippke driver only runs in a 370-mode TCPIP
SVM).

I know that there are many other VM shops running BTI's in a similar manner.

First, if you are running MVS TCP/IP V2R2.1, we have an fix which will
provide the real information when you receive this message.  The APAR
number is PN27711 and the PTFs are UN35112/3/4/5 and they just closed in
the last few days.

Lionel, as for your problem, can I assume that you are running the FTP job
under the $A1238 userid?  Also, why are you running the FTP job under TSO
batch rather than just as a normal batch job (ie, // EXEC PGM=FTP)?  You
should be able to use the LCD command to make sure that the datasets get
the prefix you want.

That may or may not be a problem, but it is not all of the story.
I can telnet from a sun workstation (using sun's version of telnet)

Yes, you are right, this is what I did not "get" and was pointed out to me by
TCP/IP level 2 support. They said it is used if doing a PUT while using FTP
from TSO. This implies to me that it is only useful if you are doing a PUT to
another MVS system!!?? Doesn't sound very useful at all. The problem was 
refered to the TCP/IP for DOS folks since their product does not support the 
SENDSITE command which when used with the SITE command could be used to do
what I want (at least this is what I was told).  

Thanks for your explaination.

The point of such questions, I believe, is not whether you know
the correct answer, if there is such a thing, but rather, what
the thought process you would use to come up with the answer.

E.g  There are 250 million people in the US.  They eat 1 slice
of pizza per week on average or 250 million slices per week. There
are 12 slices in a 16" large pizza and so on...

It's just a question to see how logical and effeciently you can
solve a large problem.

Subject:      Quest: business information in the university libraries

We have a job to develop a project about business information. I am interes-
ted, that do the university libraries deal with business information and how?
What that's mean in yours libraries the business information? Just information
about firms and companies?
Others:
It was talking about business information sources on the Internet in the list.
I have found some good economic sources in an OPAC, at the University of
Saskatschewan. (telnet 128.233.20.1 or sklib.usask.ca  user:SONIA). Here are
some good database about Canadian economy from journals and newsletters.

Subject:      Re: Working Papers Clearinghouse

I would favor a clearinghouse as an initial effort just to determine the
interest out there. My business faculty are interested but I am not sure
how much they would be willing to share. We do not catalog working papers
as a rule.I know the economics faculty have one tool that seems useful the
Abstracts of Working Papers in Economics. We hold it from 1989+.
