Andrew, Just a minor change to the list you supplied, the SNTP in V5R1 will not sync your system time with the atomic time clocks. Take a closer look at the memo to users, I believe this feature can only be used in applications.

Management of that stuff is generally cool. 3) LAN Console - if you have a 270 or 8xx box, and hate the cold of your computer room - the console is accessible over your lan. BUT... the passwords are expired when you upgrade to V5R1M0 so WATCH IT!!! 4) PTF's - REALLY Cool - they give you a status update @ the Bottom of the screen - also - they KNOW about the multi-disk Cume package - so it's MUCH friendly then previous releases... 5) Net Server changes - now net server can perform the network signon stuff - as if it was an NT network... very cool - the wizard was fabulous... Pitfalls; 1) Route to the internet (*DFTROUTE) deleted somehow... 2) SMTP changes isn't intuitive for the people "simulating" the new functions built into the Operations Navigator - such as multiple domains, and the security features... Honestly - it took a long time, but I have a 18cpw box - the languages alone are worth the upgrade... TCP/IP looks like it's been enhanced in a MAJOR way... Websphere Developer Suite comes on a convenient DVD - installs in one swell foop... Media - for newer AS/400's are (I think) coming on DVD - which would cut the time down immensely for upgrades/PTF's - I'd LOVE to be able to load PTF's unattended @ Night, and IPL the system @ 4:00am - but hey that's me... More to come - I installed it over the Christmas Day off - so it took from 8:00am to Midnight with the Cume load... (IPL was about 1 or 2 am before it completed...) Anyone know how to install the "Over the internet" PTF ordering/ECS stuff? The CD wasn't exactly clear...
