Dan,

   Currently I don't have access to a Mainframe. YET!
   To do the same thing I'm doing with opensystems.
   I basically telnet to the systems and run commands
   That will return me information about the configuration
   Of the system.

Phillip

Care to elaborate on exactly wht your trying to do then?
That may help people post examples more specific to your needs.

What do you mean by "connect to mainframe", for instance?

One could argue that you open a browser and go to it's ip address. 
That probably won't help you too much though unless you specify what 
specific tasks are needing done to shed light on the needed process.

So what are you wanting to do and what have you tried so far?
