Hi, Alan. See if your shop has installed and supports the OSA ICC feature. It's a no charge feature (that's goodness:-) that allows for TN3270 clients (PCOMM, Vista, etc.) to attach directly to the OSA card and appear to CP as locally attached 3270s. The VM TCP/IP stack is not involved at

ICC SSL support? (was Re: Second TCPIP stack and SSL)

2008-04-17 Thread Mark Bodenstein
Dave, When I configured OSA Express2 ICC on our z9 BC in January 2007 I didn't see any indication that SSL was supported. Did I miss something, or did something change since then? If you could send me a documentation or Redbook reference I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Mark At 09:37 AM

Hi, MArk. I stand corrected, OSA ICC does not support SSL.I thought I saw some SSL configuration parameters on the OSA ICC configuration screen, but the OSA ICC doc doesn't mention SSL at all. I may be confusing it with the network support for connecting to the HMC instead As you

Unless anything has changed, SSLSERV is a non-starter if you have more than 126 concurrent sessions. Aside from that, it is very stable with the latest patches (our VM is 520). We plan to post a refresh of the SSL Enabler 2 system that will contain these fixes as soon as time permits. An

When I started putting in SSLSERV, I did it in a completely separate stack (TCPTEST, SSLSERV, FTPTEST). When everything was working, I migrated SSLSERV into the production stack with TN3270 available on 2 ports (cleartext on 23, secure on 992). Then we set the deadline for our users to get
