Not sure I understand what you're asking, but... A TN3270 telnet client understands the 3270 protocol and is capable of doing full screen mode, which is required for TSO ISPF, IMS and CICS sessions, Omegamon, etc, etc. A (non-TN3270) telnet client does not understand 3270 and cannot support full screen mode in the sense of 3270. I'll need a TN3270 client on any platform to log into a "legacy" application on z/OS, such as TSO using ISPF, IMS, CICS, etc. And I'll need a (non-3270) telnet client to log into a z/OS UNIX shell. A TN3270 telnet client may well support non-3270 telnet sessions. -- Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
