Re: Is DNS running on their 400?

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

There is no option 18 under the ancient V4R5 code.  There have no jobs
named QTOBDNS.  But again - is that limited to V5R1?

A couple things that you might try  on remote customer ...

On CFGTCP take option 20 then take option 18.   This will show if the
server
is auto started and you can also get info from the Debug level (if not
0)...
I have never used so I do not know what info it will give you.  Also, do
WRKACTJOB, under subsystem QSYSWRK there should be a job QTOBDNS running.
They may need to start the DNS server.

Hope that this helps...
