We also haven't set it up under 1.8 because of that cautionary statement, but I've heard a pretty good explanation of that statement. (Better than I can describe it.) AT/TLS supposedly works under 1.8, but the 1.8 Tn3270 and FTP servers are not AT/TLS-aware until 1.9. They can't tell that they are running under AT/TLS so you cannot cleanly move their TLS support into AT/TLS. I think I heard that you actually *could* move it into AT/TLS, but that you'll have to change it again when you get to 1.9 or later. It sounds like you can implement 1.8 AT/TLS support for other applications but we haven't tried. >... >I am looking for anyone that has experience with doing it in a >test/production environment. >... I'd be interested in hearing that, too.
