Jerry,
If you are running an IPV4 network try retrieving their job information
(QUSRJOBI API JOBI0600 Format). The API is in the Work Management APIs.
You may have to create a list of jobs using the List Job (QUSLJOB) API
to dynamically fine the jobs you want to interrogate. This API is also
in the Work Management APIs.

Subject: QDCRDEVD API Not Working as Advertised (or is it just me?)
I have been trying to use the QDCRDEVD API to get the IP address used by
a
workstation. I took CL code samples posted here and a sample program
from
IBM. The latter can be found at
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas1ed43f4e3329a4a83862572
6c00
5d8be4 which I just copied and pasted, compiled and ran.
The issue that I am having is that no matter what device id (job) I pass
to
the CL I always get 10.1.10.11. Doesn't matter if it is a dynamic
device
created by Client Access, such as QPADEV0004, or a static device name,
such
as D2 [me].
We have >20 retail stores that connect to our system (V5R2) over the
'Net
with Client Access. Each store has a static ip address so I was hoping
to
be able to identify each store based upon their IP address when they
signed
in. I have not run this at any of the stores, only local devices.
Any idea why everything gets reported as 10.1.10.11?
