For administrative tasks, ssh.

For regular user access, that would depend upon the application. In some cases they're web based (Websphere, SAP). In some cases there is a specific client available (Domino).

In other cases they're sockets based and the users may or may not know (or care) that they are using Linux on the mainframe (eg. DB2 Connect, MQ Series).

Once a z/VM Linux guest is defined and the Linux operating system is installed and initial users such as a root user and admin user added to the system what would be the most common way of accessing the Linux guest?

Could you dial into the Linux guest? Is TCP/IP'ing to the guest the best way of accessing the guest either locally or remote.

Thanks
