Re: Is Dial CPWATCH part of the regular one or what?

There is no user / VM CPWATCH defined in the
essentials/release6.direct file, so presumably there is no CPWATCH
user/machine define on the system ;)

Hence if the machine doesn't exist, it can't logon, and disconnect,
and therefore you can't DIAL to it  :)

On a related note, is there a CP / CMS  routine or control block that
can be read to query which users have been defined in the system
directory ?

On the *sixpack*,  I tried an  ACC 231  G,  then the query disk shows
G  as an OS disk
