Error description
EDCORINT parses the TCPIP.DATA (/etc/hosts) file for LE. The HOSTNAME length is incorrectly determined because trailing blanks are not stripped off before the length is determined. ADDITIONAL SYMPTOMS: FTP client will receive the following error: CY0898 ftpStart: setibmopt error (138/11B3005A) - EDC5138I No such device or address. This will be seen when FTP is invoked with trace. This fails in interactive TSO and works in batch.
Local fix
If possible specify a HOSTNAME without trailing blanks.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the __iphost function. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When the HostName is read from the * * resolver configuration file, TCPIP.DATA * * or /etc/resolv.conf, the resulting * * string is not properly terminated. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Code within the module EDCORINT does not properly null terminate the hostname string. This causes the __IPHOST function to return an invalid hostname.
Problem conclusion
Code in EDCORINT was corrected to properly terminate the hostname string.
