Hi, you can also combine several techniques. You could also set up a firewall rule that blocks someones ip, that has e.g. more than 3 ip connects (create socket) within 3 minutes or so against the telnet 3270 port, the port can be blocked for e.g. 60min. That will make ddos even harder. All numb

We have defined in our policy both the CF's normally in use during Production and the CF that will be used in a DR. That way when the policy is replicated to the DR site all the information required is already present and we do not have to switch policies. In normal life a D CF command shows one un

I am trying to understand where some jobs are coming from. When I look in the log I see $HASP100 JOB1 ON RDR1 Which I take that the JCL is coming thru RDR(1). I can display RDR(1), but that doesn't help me. How is the JCL getting to RDR(1)? Is this use of the RDRCHAR to get the JCL processe

I would assume that you're running z/OS on z/VM and that RDR1 is assigned to a virtual card reader. If so, check the console log for the virtual machine to see the incoming SPOOL files. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3 From: IBM

Time is the hacker’s most precious resource, so make them spend a lot to get a little. Our “Haystak” system (midrange) solicits and requires both userid and password and if authorisation fails then “logon failed” is the only response given. The “user” is allowed several attempts to get it right

These recommendations are culled from the procedure we've used for 20 years. -- With a new (empty) CFRM data set, you should not see any reference to the production policy. -- 'IN USE BY ANOTHER SYSPLEX' suggests that you are pointing to (a copy of) the prod version, not the DR version. --
