TSO TELNET is not a TN3270 client, it supoprts only line mode. If you telnet to the foreign host's TN3270 server listening port (23 usualkly) you'll be able to login into TSO line mode. ISPF would not work, since it requires full screen mode (afaik, I haven't tried in a while).
If you telnet to the foreogn host's telnet daemon / inet daemon listening port (623 or 1023 are widely used), you'll be able to login into a z/OS UNIX shell. Note that this still is line mode "over 3270", no raw mode. It behaves more like TSO OMVS than "real" telnet from another UNIX box (or WINDOW$ or Mac). I don't know if there is a full-mode TN3270 client that could be installed on z/OS. -- Peter Hunkeler CREDIT SUISSE ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
