NJE stands for "Network Job Entry" and is an IBM protocol defined as follows: "A facility for transmitting jobs (JCL and in-stream datasets), SYSOUT datasets, (job-oriented) operator commands/messages, and job accounting information from one computing system to another." NJE is provided by IBM for the following operating systems: JES2 JES3 RSCS POWER OS/400 Other implementations exist for PC's (BARR/HASP, etc) VAX/VMS (JNET), and unix (UREP). The protocol is defined in the IBM Publication "Network Job Entry, Formats and Protocols", IBM document number SC23-0070. Hope this helps. Harold
