I am looking to purchase a terminal server that supports tn3270 for connecting to IBM Mainframes. Do any such servers exist? If not, have any manufacturers announced plans to support tn3270 in the future, and how soon? Please respond via E-mail .. thanks. -- Dave Rubin Polytechnic University drubin@polyof.poly.edu

I looked at this a while ago. There are only two products that I could find. The Yale Multi-Protocol Gateway does the job but it is expensive. There is a company called XYPLEX (phone 508-264-9900) that makes a TN3270 terminal server. However they only support VT100, VT220 and standard ANSI X3.64 compaitible terminals. They demonstrated them at InterOP. They seemed to work. If they provided a way to have user defined terminal types they would have a hot seller.
