WDSC _and_ CODE problems

Man you never realize how productive you are with these tools until you have
to live without them!

I have been spending a miserable weekend wrestling with problems with both
WDSC and CODE.  They both cause problems when talking to a new V5R3 system.
It has been so bad that I've had to resort to SEU! 

I'm running version 6.0.1 of both WDSC and CODE.

Machine is at latest PTF level as best I can tell.  Certainly "Verify
Connection" in WDSC and "Check PTFs" in CODE think so!  Both products can
retrieve lists of libraries and source file members.  

CODE can both retrieve source members and save them.  WDSC seems unable to
do either. 

Neither product can verify if the file is not already in the cache.  And
WDSC seems confused even about that.

Both products can do everything they should with other system which
indicates a problem with the host but ... ?

This is from the CODE comms log file:

EVFCTCPD.EXE Sun Jul 23 19:20:21 2006 ** Error logging begins **
EVFCTCPD.EXE Sun Jul 23 19:20:21 2006 Message not found

EVFWLX40.EXE Sun Jul 23 19:21:18 2006 ADECHECKOBJECT: LSF FOPEN (WRITE) FAIL
FOR C:\WDSC\Cache\EVFCACHE.000.

I can never find the %$#% log files for WDSC** - but the message is the one
with the empty host message that others here have reported.  We've tried
most of the fixes mentioned on this list - but nobody seems to have ever
reported what cured it for them.  One of the PCs with the problem is a brand
new PC, so there are certainly no "old" cache issues.

(** Dear IBM please make them accessible via a menu option or something like
CODE does)

Anybody got any clues before I'm forced to suffer the pain of using SEU any
longer than I already have!
