George, your SNA-IDs of the two systems are NEX.NEX and NEX2.NEX2 while you set the nex controllers up for a conversation between the machines NEX.APPN and NEX2.APPN. Do a CHGNETA on both machines for the local network ID parameter and change it to "APPN" on both machines, so that they both reside in the "APPN"-network, then it should work.
