It is demanded by our customer that we use LU 2 NT 2.0 SNA communication. 2) Can I transfer a "communication channel" between different processes (not of the same parent); or can I leave the channel open for use by another process, even after the first process has died? This is required for my application to prevent the long time needed to login if the IBM system is loaded. I know that creating a server-process is one way to accomplish the above, but for various reasons I do not want to use them if another method is possible. Please email answers or suggestions to me, I'll forward them. Thanks, --- Rob Hulsebos == hulsebos@ine.philips.nl Philips Industrial Electronics PObox 218TQV3, 5600 MD Eindhoven, Netherlands.
