Hy, I don`t know, wether this is the right group to diskuss my problems about IBM connectivity. We have a customer, who has IBM Computers and he connects his DOS-PC via koax-cable (this is no token ring) to the IBM-controller 3274. We know about three DOS products: IRMA,Advance Attachmate and IBM itsself All these products have a hardware for the koaxcable connection an a MS-DOS software. This connaction is a SNA connaction which can have four sessions to the IBM ( I think it`s LU 6.2). Now our customer like to use these hardwareboards or from other vendors to make connection from SCO UNIX 3.2.2 to IBM 3274 over the koaxcable. He wants to have four sessions, each for a different user on UNIX. We tried to install IRMA and Advance Attachmate via VP/ix to IBM. This installation works, but is not stable. Funny VP/ix, to many problems, sometimes to slow, sometimes systemcrach. Now, my questions, I hope they are clear. Is there a product or software or any kind of solution to connect to IBM 3274 over a koaxcable under SCO UNIX 3.2.2. Who knows anything about IRAM, Advance Attachmate ? Who has problems like ours?
