Try adding system environment variable QZLC_SERVERLIST to your system environment variables. This tells your system to use the master browse for your subnet to find the list of servers on your network. I think this change requires a reboot to activate it.

ADDENVVAR ENVVAR(‘QZLC_SERVERLIST’) VALUE(’1′) LEVEL(*SYS)

Yes, the iSeries must be in the same domain just like is true for a PC. See the netserver properties in iSeries Navigator. However, as I said before, IBM has a problem in some of these situations. I am awaiting a PTF.

Add the mkdir to the qstrup.

some weeks ago I had found a nota that explained that when the I5 & the win servers are in the same domain, the i5 adds automaticaly the win servers to qntc.

but I don’t know neither what is a domain nor where that can be updated in the i5.

MKDIR is not recommended by IBM. The system is supposed to do this automatially just like your PC does when it uses My Network Places. We have a similar problem and we have an open PMR with IBM. I suggest calling 1-800-IBM-SERV and logging the problem. I understand that there is a PTF in the works for this; maybe the PTF will solve your problem.

Remember, from IBM’s perspective, the MKDIR is only a workaround.
