Re: Named 5250 telnet sessions

Mathias,

It sounds to me like the STRPASTHR command you are using is hitting a specific
virtual controller.  I don't know all of the specifics but I believe if you
reference no virtual controller the system should use QPACTL01 or something
similar.  I would look at how your target system is configured for virtual
controllers and how your passthru is programmed on your source system.

Hi,
We use rumba 5250 with named device support. This by itself works
fine.
Trouble starts when someone passes through (strpasthr) from another
system. Instead of using a qpadevxxx *DEVD it randomly uses one of the
'named' ones which then stops the owner of that devd from connecting
to the 400.
Is there any way I can force strpasthr to the qpadev... devices?
Regards,
Matthias
