By the way, problem solved.

Nodename was missing from dsm.sys (Linux client). I was told this

problem, but client tracing showed that it was. Just FYI.  :)

Good find, Chip.

The Unix TSM client defaults to using the host name as returned by
the 'hostname' command.  In AIX and Solaris, the command returns the
simple form of name that we are accustomed to using as a TSM node
name, such as "columbia3".  But Linux has to be different: invoke its
'hostname' command and you get back the name plus a domain qualifier,
like "columbia3.ourcompany.com".  So, either you use that cumbersome
thing for node name, or override with the NODename option.
