Is there a public domain verion of tn3270 availble for IBMPC? All I have been able find is for a SUN or Ultrix. If not a public domain version, is there a company making a PC version of tn3270? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Patrick Johnston Manager, International Marketing & Support pjj@interlink.com Interlink Computer Sciences sun!ntrlink!pjj 47370 Fremont Blvd Fremont, California 94538 voice: 415/657-9800 fax: 415/659-6381

I know of the following DOS TN3270s: our PC/TCP (3278-2 thru 5, 7 colors, some extended data stream features, multi-session), IBM's DOS product (single session, 3278-2?), Wollongong's WIN/PC (single session, 3278-2?), Mitek Systems' add-on to our PC/TCP kernel (3179-G), Clarkson CUTCP (multi-session, 3278-2?). At least the PC/TCP and CUTCP versions have a built-in FTP server so VM users can stay logged-in while doing transfers. The only one I know of that's ever been available in source form for free was a variant Greg Minshall did while at UCB, which was in the 4bsd tn3270 distribution. I don't think it got any maintenance after about 1987, so I wouldn't expect it to build out of the box. It assumed a U-B socket library. James B.
