- You mean IND$FILE transfer?

- What didn't you like about it?

- There are other vendors that offer 3270 for the Sun, notably

- You'll need an LU 6.2 Transaction Program in addition to LU 6.2
- itself for that. IBM has some....so does Spectrum Concepts (or
- whatever their name is this week). The Spectrum Concepts XCOM
- 6.2 is allegedly one of the faster ones....but you'll need a
- copy on both the mainframe and your Suns to use it...and LU 6.2.
