I did not get that. So I understand I should change s390.cnf like
this:
-# network s390 realbox
-0A00,0A01 CTCI -n /dev/net/tun -t 1500 10.1.1.2 10.1.1.1
+0A00.2 CTCI 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.2
This does not seem to make difference. (I am using 192.168.0.x
instead of 10.1.1.x)

"the newest s390 (or s390x) daily" - That is the one from May 8, 2012?

That is what I was suspecting.

No, it hangs at some later point. Non-deteministic.
