AS400 and Terminal Services

Is your AS/400 Ethernet Capable. Rather than Kludge the issue with emulation boards, run an ethernet Client software on the Workstations, and connect to the host via TCP/IP.

We have quite a number of Server Terminal Clients that run Client Access for Win95 via TCP/IP.

As far as the terminal server is concerned, it is no different than offering up a web browser to the clients.

Hi ,

the most As-400 installions are running tcpIp now, check that first. Then use a client SW for the Connection to the AS400, CA is working fine, but in an Terminal Server Environment you have an little Problem. Your server has got only one IP-Adress, and normaly the AS-400 controller is identifyng the connection at the uniqe IP-Adress.

Dont worry, the only thing you have to do is to take the login name to identify the connection.

We have a terminal server within our Health Dept. as well as an AS400 box which both on our network using TCP/IP. Some of my users, mainly practitioners, are requesting to work from home to do this I plan to load Minisoft, which is what we use as our emulation software. Run the setup on the Terminal server and setup this up just as I would a normal client. Once the client is installed and configured and works from the terminal server. I will create shortcut of this emulator and place it in eachusers profile\desktop. This should allow my users to login from home get a memory space from the terminal server and launch the emulator as if they were working from their PC. I hope this helps. Just remember to use the Add and Remove Programs from the Control Panel to do the install and select "use application for all users" when asked. Good Luck.
