Depending on the age of your library, you may need to run the configuration 
utility to set up LAN communications on the OS/2 machine which is the library 
manager.  Most 3494's used by mainframes communicate via the controllers, not 
over the LAN.

This is a one time set up, and if I recall correctly, is not an obvious thing 
to do via the menus.  I've had this issue at a couple of sites, and could not 
add a lan host until the config utility was run.  It's launched via the command 
line in OS/2, but unfortunately I can't find any notes on it at the moment.  
Running the utility enbles the LAN port, and then the "ADD LAN HOST" menu 
options should work.

Your regular CE might not know how to do this if he/she are more familiar with 
the mainframe communications, but if you open a call with IBM like Mark 
suggested, and emphasize that it's an initial attempt to communicate, hopefully 
they can help you out.
