"how" buried in code? With or without any parameters? Is it STRPASTHR remote or ?STRPASTHR STRPASTHR RMTLOCNAME(remote) That last one is the problem child. The others will be easily handled by the proxy command.

1) We do have STRPASTRH in code, I'll have to work on eliminating this.

2) One of our 3rd party packages heavily uses QDLS, this will have to
stay, unfortunately.

3) What actually uses SNADS, if I shut it down, what won't work?

RNMOBJ OBJ(STRPASTHR) OBJTYPE(*CMD) NEWOBJ(STRPASTHRX) CRTPRXCMD
CMD(QSYS/STRPASTHR) TGTCMD(QTCP/TELNET) strpasthr gdi Connecting to host
gdi.dekko-1 at address 10.17.6.144 using port 23.

Definitely using TCP now, eh? Big clue being an IP address and 'port 23'.

Only problem being if they have STRPASTHR buried into actual code with
some of the parameters defined. Like, menu option 29 does a strpasthr
using such and such a virtual controller, for instance.
That's solvable, but you start delving into 'command override exit
points'. Which I've actually done to convert all uses of SNDDST to
SNDEMAIL.

Rob,

I'd be interested in that.

I have an open PMR with IBM, strpasthr fails intermittently, following a
SAVRSTOBJ failure.
At this point IBM can't determine if SAVRSTOBJ or EE is the culprit.

If strpasthr is the only command the 'users' are using of snads, it's
really easy to create a proxy command for telnet that uses that name.
