Vern,

Support for the client side of STRPPCCMD is built into the
emulator...nothing to install, turn on or start.  Unlike RUNRMTCMD.

Even non-IBM emulators can/could have it.  I know Powerterm does...

Thx, Scott

That's cool. But it won't help for us - I can't make the assumption that
support for STRPCCMD is in place, or that certain file shares are there.

But I believe I have an answer using EIM APIs - am working an adding SSO
to some of our stuff.

No, it's just this:

STRPCCMD PCCMD('CMD /C ECHO %USERNAME%>
\\mynetserver\MYSHARE\MYFILE.TXT') PAUSE(*NO)

Then read the contents of MYFILE.TXT to find out the username.

I don't have a Pro/VIP subscription, so can't see the article - does it
involve a program you call on the PC? I'm not sure that would fly for
our situation.

Thanks
