Eric,

Using APPC w/ICF, is this possible?  I always thought you had to do 
the EVOKE.  In fact, that is how I've done many APPC programs.

How do you indicate what you want to connect to?

Bob

     Andrew,

     I'm not exactly sure I understand.... is it something like:

     1> AS400 (sys a) always runs a comm job that just waits for
     connection (ICFW or BSCW).

     2> AS400 (sys b) dialing into sysA for testing. As soon as
     connection is established, pgms start talking.

     3> Tandem (sys c) dialing in to sysA for production. like above.


     A waiting for connection
     B or C dialing A
     Connect
     B-->A  (send request) pgm to pgm
     A-->B  (send reply)   pgm to pgm
     Disconnect
     A waiting for connection

     Evoke is not necessary. Just have the comm job active on Sys A, 
and
     it will just wait for a valid connection to begin. If this is the 
     scenario, I might be able to provide you with samples. Contact me

I'm trying to simulate connection to a mainframe via an ICF file using 
two AS/400's , and I'm running into a problem in getting the two 
AS/400
to chat with one another.  I want to blind transmit information sent
over the ICF to the receiving AS/400 end, and reply using the program
that is sitting and waiting for a communication that would normally be 
to a mainframe (tandom..).  So far, I've run into the snafu that I 
have
to evoke the receiving end from the transmitting AS/400 end.  In
reality, I don't want to evoke, and I want the other end just to
startup, and answer messages sent by the mainframe.  Any clues as to
what I do?
