We are looking at the Sun to VM connections for a group of 12-15 Sun workstations. We have looked at SunLink and MITEK. What we are looking for is a gateway or server solution, where the gateway/server is directly connected to the IBM mainframe (via channel, coax or RS-232 attachment) on one side and attached to a TCP/IP Ethernet on the other. We would like to know about any solutions like this or similar and also any comments from people on personal experiences. Thanx for any replies.

I gather the best way to do this is to get IBM's own TCP/IP Ethernet converter, RS232 is (I understand) not the way to go. Tim Panton, Westhawk Ltd. Paper: Westhawk Ltd. 26 Rydal Grove, Helsby, Cheshire, WA6 OET. UK. Phone: +44 92822574 uucp : ..!mcvax!ukc!cam-cl!westhawk!thp
