When trying to use WSCP to connect to a process in a different
domain (e.g. raleigh.ibm.com from austin.ibm.com), it doesn't
work. The wscp code is stripping the domain from the hostname.

This apar is opened to fix the wscp startup failure
(regression) on the sm cumulative efix caused by the defect
157842.
Problem conclusion
The defect 157842 had changed the getInitialContext() of
ClientRepository.java to allow users to use wscp connect to a
process in a different domain.  The original function always
stripped the domain from the host name and wscp would thus not
able to connect to process on different domain. The defect
introduced the problem that was causing wscp fail to start on
unix machine.  The APAR PQ71152 open to fix the problem caused
by the defect 157842.
