- If there is a frequently asked question list about this can some kind
- person mail it to me ( darrell@lanlord.bhpese.oz.au ).
-
- I am currently looking at the feasability of running TCP/IP on our
- IBM mainframe which runs MVS. A few hundred questions come to light
- but I will try to keep to a minimum.
-
- (1) Can I use tn3270 to connect directly to an application other than
- TSO ? e.g. IMS or CICS.
-
- (2) What would be the easiest way to send transactions from a UNIX
- machine (or VAX VMS with TCP/IP) to IMS?
-
- (3) What would be the best hardware interface for offload 3172 or RS/6000 ?
-
- (4) Is a 3172 a 486 OS/2 machine?
-
- (5) Our future directions will be client server to DB2 are there TCP/IP
- solutions around to support this?
-
- (6) Does anyone have implementation recommendations?
