IBM Netview (Tivoli now?) used to do session management. MacKinney's VTAM/Switch http://www.mackinney.com/products/vtam/vtam_switch.htm Out of curiousity, why bother anymore? Surely very few people are running with true 3270 terminals. On a PC desktop (Windows or Linux or *BSD), you could just fire up multiple TN3270 sessions. We have TPX, but I never use it. I think most people who do use it are simply too lazy to logon multiple times (we automate logons via TPX via ACL). Most of our end users do not use TPX. They actually have multiple TN3270 sessions. This is a plus because they have have both displayed on a dual monitor so they can "keep an eye" on the other session easily without having to "flip" over to it to take a look. Even with only a single monitor, you can have one "big" 3270 screen and a "small" one for "subconscious monitoring". -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
