I asked yesterday for help on an issue, and here is the log when the system was re-IPLed last nite. Here is the message from the VMOPER console that I got when we were trying to get LISTSERV to work. HCPCLS6056I XAUTOLOG information for LISTSERV: The IPL command is verified by the IPL command processor. USER DSC LOGOFF AS LISTSERV USERS = 29 From my VERY limited knowledge of VM, it appears that the listserv logged itself off after going to disconnected status. However, sending a help command to [log in to unmask] just returns that it is disconnected. Any more advice or assistance greatly appreciated. thanks dan Dan Lester, 3577 East Pecan, Boise, Idaho 83716-7115 USA 208-383-0165 [log in to unmask] http://www.84.com/ (check out our 1997 holiday letter) http://library.idbsu.edu/ http://cyclops.idbsu.edu/ http://www.lili.org/ Sent me a postcard of a library yet?
