Can anyone provide details on how well/badly this works? Also costs? IBM would maybe like to sell us one and I would like to know how much of a markup the local arm is making - or even if it is worth pursuing at all. We have a 4381 with VM (no VSE, MVS or VTAM thankyou) We would like to upgrade from our bisync line running thru a 3704 (yep, I kid you not, but then it thinks it's a 2770 anyway :-() and TCP/IP to the VMS and Unix boxes rather than jNet/UREP. Thanks. -- Michael Newbery Internet: newbery@comp.vuw.ac.nz Une boule qui roule tue les poules. (Landslides kill chickens)
