Why would you use putty? To logon to a VM guest, you should be using TN3270. You would use PUTTY to connect to the Linux machine and do a Linux signon. Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting Law of Cat Obstruction A cat must lay on the floor in such a position to obstruct the maximum amount of huma

curiousity question: Linux usage: many or few

2008-03-26 Thread McKown, John
I'm wondering about this. I'm a z/OS person with some Linux knowledge. But we don't run Linux on z around here. In the Windows world, the mantra is generally "One server, one function".
