Do you know if your client was likely to have had some sort of 
official arrangement with some site with a real machine etc, or 
could this be as basic as someone running either Hercules (an
emulator) on a PC?  Or the IBM equivalent of that?

If it's a PC-based emulation of real kit, then - especially if it has
been run by someone other than a business, it might just not be
running at the moment.

If they're not in your part of the world, then you might have to 
try again in the middle of the night.


Your definition of "unreachable" is not altogether helpful.  What 
happens if you ping or tracert that ip address?


You also mentioned what the VTAM login screen looked like.
Do you have a screenshot?  Apart from the "MTI-1" literal you 
mentioned, do any of the listed services have any clues at all 
in their names?
