3x74 EMULATION using PC?

Apologies for first posting related errors.

I have an imminent need for a ibm-pc(clone) package that will emulate
a very specific part of an SNA network.  I am trying to provide
a single terminal and printer on a multi-drop SNA line (SDLC) without
dropping a controller (3x74 type - in this case AT&T 6544) and a
terminal and printer (327x type and 3286 type respectively - in
this case AT&T 6579 and AT&T 577).  The package should provide
support for the sdlc to a synchronous modem and can use an add-on
board if the serial port is not capable of the clock synchronization.
It should emulate a 3x74 controller to the modem and provide LU's
for at least one terminal and printer.

Please mail to cbnewsb!jjm or phone 501-5694212. (AUDIX)

   You should be able to get an SDLC card from IBM.  As for the  
   3270 emulation, IBM also sells a PC 3270 Emulation pckg, you 
   can also try DCA ( makers of the IRMA board ).
