For example, suppose we had the following applications: 128.103.1.xxx - library.harvard.edu - CICS01 128.103.1.yyy - telephone.harvard.edu - CICS02 128.103.1.zzz - tso.harvard.edu - TSO01 where "library" was a CICS application that would put the user directly into an online library catalog, "telephone" would put the user directly into a CICS application providing an online telephone directory service, and "tso" would put the user into tso. I believe that a single network interface like a BTI box or 8232 could support such a configuration. (Actually, the network interface wouldn't care) Could the IBM TCP/IP for MVS product allow multiple address spaces like TCPIPLIB.PROFILE, TCPIPTEL.PROFILE, and TCPIPTSO.PROFILE to support the different applications? Is anyone out there doing something like this? Your thoughts and comments will be most appreciated. Thanks
