Does anyone know if IBM or a 3rd party makes a product for the
AS/400 system which can do the following....
A user is attached, via a 5250 Terminal, to the AS/400.
Magically, the AS/400 would make this terminal look like a
Telnet terminal (wyse, vt100, xterm, etc.) for logging on,
via Ethernet, to a Unix host application. (Over TCP/IP on
the E'net...)
i.e. the AS/400 + magical product(s) would make the 5250 user
believe that he is attached to the AS/400--while
actually passing the session data on over to Unix. The
Unix host would see the 5250 as a Telnet terminal. The
magical product would provide the primary LU and PU
functions for the 5250, and magically transform these
into Telnet functions. Manual logon/logoff to/from
Telnet would be o.k., but via a script...
