This could be an option in the future however the as/400 
is a customers machine - not our own.

I did check previously. Here is the current details:
on QSYSOPR:
Message . . . . :   Program start request received on communications device
  SYNAPSE was rejected with reason codes 726, 0.

Cause . . . . . :   The program start request was rejected in job         
  038529/QSYS/QPASVRS. The device belongs to remote location CUST. If the 
  device is an advanced program-to-program communications (APPC) device, t
  program start request was received on mode BLANK with unit-of-work      
  identifier *N-*N-*N. The first reason code means: User profile has been 
  disabled. The second reason code means: None.                           
Recovery  . . . :   See the job log for more information about the problem

I then looked at the relavent joblog:
CALL PGM(QSYS/QPASVRS) PARM('0001' 'QPASVRP   QSYS      038522')
Automatic sign-on not allowed.                                  
Virtual device CGMAWS1 selected at system CUST.                 

Pressing Help on the above message:
Message . . . . :   Automatic sign-on not allowed.

Cause . . . . . :   User MIKE from location WELLBORO in network APPN
attempted 
  to automatically sign on to user profile ECSOFT at location  in

  network APPN, but was not successful. The target system has rejected the

  sign-on attempt or does not support the automatic sign-on function, but
has  
  allowed a sign-on screen to be presented.

Recovery  . . . :   Contact the remote site if you believe you should be

  allowed to automatically sign on using pass-through.


n.b. The  is reverse image blanks.

It does appear that the user in the above message is wrong.
In the above instance, I specified ECSOFT as the user on the STRPASTHR 
command, but it is showing MIKE in the message. 
Earlier messages where I did not specify a user/pwd on the STRPASTHR cmd
shows user QSECOFR....

I have looked at the device description we use and have noticed that aswell
as
the std BLANK mode, there is also a SNASVCMG mode:
-------------------Active modes--------------------   
               Job                                    
Mode           name           User           Number   
BLANK          QCMN           QSYS           038503   
SNASVCMG       QLUS           QSYS           038444   

tried a DSPMODD on it but it comes up with:
Reserved mode name not allowed for user mode name (CPD2707).

Very strange !
