Hello,

I am not sure if this is the appropriate group, but it seemed 
the most relevant.

Administrative groups here are having to make a transition from a 
broadband system to ethernet in order to access an IBM system that
supports their functions.  Currently most are using PCs and the 
Crosstalk software to do this.  However, as far as I know, Crosstalk 
doesn't support an ethernet interface and thus they will have to 
switch over to something like the NCSA tn3270 software for commun-
icating with the IBM system (Which they are not thrilled to do).

I have been using an AnnexIIe for maintain modems and have been very
pleased with it capabilites and ease-of-configuration.  However, to
the best of my knowledge, and through some experimentation, telnet
(on the Annex) won't talk very well with the IBM.

So, are there any terminal servers that support communication to 
IBM systems out there?  It seems like this should have been addressed
before but so far I have come up dry.

Thanks,

--Dan



Some groups here are undergoing major network changes (essentially
from a broadband system to ethernet) and are hoping to minimize the
transition as easily as possible.
