    We are running Release 3 Version 2.6 on our HMC's, and it seems to work
    fine.

    You can still ssh into the system remotely but your are given a restricted
    shell. You can get around this by logging into the hmc directly as hmcroot
    and then su to root. Then go to your home dir and edit your .bashrc and
    remove the entries for sourcing the .mysshrc file. You can then su and
    modify your .bashrc as you like.

    Let me know if you have any issues.

    Hi All,

    Looking to see if anyone has updated their HMC software version to the
    latest.
    We are running Release 3 Version 2.2. IBM wants us to upgrade to the
    latest, 2.6 (I think) however, I was told by support that the newer version
    does not support remote connections to the HMC via ssh. I really don't
    want to lose this feature.

    Has anyone upgraded and has anyone found a work around for this new "lack
    of feature".

    Thanks in advance.
    John
