In my experience it's usually quite straightforward to set up a workstation
connection, especially if you set one up at work (i.e. where the PC and
mainframe are both on the same intranet). Even if you don't have a static IP
address, the ZIPADDR system variable usually contains the right IP address to
connect to.
It might be a little more tricky to set up a connection at home (especially if
you don't use a VPN), but even then it's usually not that difficult. And, IMO,
it's worth spending the time to figure it out.
There's a chapter in the SimpList user guide that explains how to set up a
workstation connection. I'd be happy to forward that section of the guide to
anyone who's interested in learning how to set up a connection.

Dave,
I'd like a copy of that chapter, to hand out at customer
sites when I teach, to help them at least try it out.
