I have several serial lines from our SparcStation 2 to our mainframe protocol converter that I want to make available to our users from the internet. I want a way for a user to log in to a special user id that will check if any of these lines are free, and if they are, make the connection and get out of the way (with perhaps a special break char), or tell the user that they are busy and to try again. I might have to provide some options so I can do some 3270 keyboard translation, etc... Has anyone done anything like this in perl? I'm not sure I understand all the issues involved, and I don't have much time to get this implemented and would appreciate any help others can provide. Thanks! -Ed Ed Ramsey ramsey@npirs.purdue.edu 317/494-6616 FAX/494-0535 NPIRS-Net Network Services Manager
