Re: System Names

["John Ross Midrange list" <jross-ml@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I assume you are connecting to the AS400 ok it is just when
you try to use IFS.

You might want to look at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v4r4/ic2924/info/apis/qzlslsti.htm
check out "Allow system name"  and   "Server name" not sure
why they do not tell you  DSPNETA is how to see the AS/400
network attributes. The other netserver API's are at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v4r4/ic2924/info/apis/ss1.htm#Header_4
If you do write something to check and would not mind
sharing the source I am starting to work on an open source
project for these API's.

Or you could just go and set it to allow Allow system name
using
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v4r4/ic2924/info/apis/qzlschsn.htm
or Ops Nav to change it.
