Re: V6R1 (QGPL/QUSRSYS) question.

I like this solutions, nice job. This takes the data from the old file
into the new files with the IBM published interface.

WELLLLLLLLLLL Here's the thing.

With V6R1 the file Qusrsys/QATHOHOST member HOSTS (Memory here, don't
quote me on that) is deprecitated, meaning the actual data is stored
somewhere else now. So if what you are really after is just the 'HOSTS'
file then this may not be your best option. You see the issue is that as

of V6R1 you can have more than 4 host names per IP address *AND you can
now put IPV6 addresses in there. As a consequence it's more than simply
restoring the correct ifle from QUSRSYS to get the hosts table updated.

I wish I could give you an awesome simple method to move just the hosts
file but sadly I cannot.
