Is there some implementation of tn3270 available for VMS systems running WIN/TCP? I guess if there is some source available for a BSD 4.3 tn3270 it might run under Eunice 4.3 BSD, but is there som ething available that will compile under VAX C using only the stuff that comes with stand-alone WIN/TCP?

I've received quite a few requests for any response I get on TWG's support for tn3270. I've tried sending mail to the people who asked, but our local mailer has bounced most of the attempts, so I'll just post my findings here. I talked with several people at TWG yesterday afternoon and came up with the following information: Yes, the current release of Eunice does have tn3270, but I don't think it is the version that supports VM/XA. They said that there probably wasn't a way to get the Eunice executable to run with the runtime executive that comes with WIN/TCP (REX) either. However, they did say that they would be including tn3270 with WIN/TCP v3.3 which should be out sometime this summer. (I know, 3.2 isn't even out yet, but they said that should be out in May) In the meantime I guess we'll all just have to go through some intermediate machine which does support tn3270. Hope this info helps, Joel
