We just went through this. There are a number of people who have existing MVS products, most based on the UCLA TCP for MVS code. Comanies include ACC, Network Solutions, etc.. I've also heard that BTI now has code that will drive their box from MVS. In each case the TCP is the traditional type that runs on the host. In addition, Fibronics makes a box that sits on the net and does TCP/IP. Also several companies will support 3270 emulation from TELNET into the host as if their box were a cluster controller (Mitek, Bridget,...). Right now we're using the code we got from UCLA and the ACC hardware. If you're willing to wait a few months, IBM has announced their own TCP/IP for MVS. I've talked to the implementors about this (it's a port of the VM product) and seen it demoed at a show, so it looks like it has a lot of promise. -Ron
