DING! DING! DING! Your instructions were a winner! Where did you find them?
Were they posted somewhere or were they in the bowels of some PTF letter I
never bother to read?

I learnt about DSPPTFAPYI after a surprise during a much earlier Cume
+ Group + TR debacle which was utterly my own fault. DSPPTFAPYI was
documented in an IBM technote that I stumbled on while trying to suss
out what I'd done to my system.

The special instructions for ending HTTP and i Nav were in one of the
PTF cover letters in SF99223. I knew which ones to look at because
DSPPTFAPYI told me the ones which went deferred instead of immediate.
So I read the cover letters of those and found those special
instructions.

I'm not at all endorsing my method of 'apply immed + deferred and
check which ones didn't chooch' as a good idea. I'm sure I /should/
be reading all the cover letters in advance and I'm sure that this
/will/ catch up to me at some point, but the o-rings held for another
launch.
