I am having problems finding documentation for hooking
ENIAC up to our IBM 3090 via modem. Does anybody in netland have
any documentation from when they did it? Any help would be
appreciated, since we need a real machine to do our fractal
processing--the 3090 can't handle the computations.

			Frantically,

Suggest you use a 2780 emulator on the ENIAC side.  tcp-ip is not
supported on the 3090.  We did this with our IBM 1620 with no problem.
Hope this helps.

Actually, here at RPI, we have a 3090 which DOES support TCP/IP,
though admittedly indirectly.  (It's actually a PDP on a port which
handles the actual TCP implementation -- it's a slave to the 3090.)
