NJE38 Usage


 

I've played with NJE38, but it's name implies that it can do NJE to a more modern JES2 system.
?
I tried defining a connection between a TK5 system to a z/OS system at a friend's company without success.? Despite the fact that NJE38 can use TCP/IP to communicate to another TK5 system, it doesn't seem to work with a modern TCP/IP NJE connection.
?
I'm aware of the lack of SNA facilities in 3.8's VTAM.
?
I don't know if there's a way to RJE to a TK5 system via Hercules and have a modern system connect via RJE instead.??
?
Any thoughts?? Or is this a fool's errand?

Most likely the latter. I guess the "wire protocol" over TCP is different between the common NJE we're talking about vs. the IBM implementation.

:wq! PoC


 

I looked into the NJE protocol awhile back.? There are a lot of specific content required depending upon the release level and the participants.? NJE38 is likely coded for the requirements of that era (whatever that is).? To interact with current operating systems requires various messaging likely not present.

Whether this is a fool's errand or not, judge for yourself.

Hi Shawn
?
I can definitely confirm that NJE38 can communicate with modern z/VM and z/OS systems using the TCPNJE driver.
