Let me state my requirements more clearly, I wrote a STAX job that submits
requests to a remote machine, I need subsequent process and stafcmd elements
to use the same handle within a thread.
It is stated
here<http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFUG.htm#HDRHNDLCON>that:
> The first thing a process should do is register with STAF to obtain a

So how can I perform this registration without using the
STAFHandle<http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFPython.htm#Header_STAFHandle>class?
For static handles, it is stated
here<http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFUG.htm#HDRHANDCRT>in the
STAF user's guide that:
> This command is only valid if submitted to the local machine, not to
> remote machines.

So static handles can be created for local machine only, while I need this
for a remote machine.
Thanks
