Chris -
I thought I understood the question - after your mail I may be confused!
What we did was:
Telnet (PCOMM) to z/os mainframe and get NVAS logon menu -> logon tso and
enter TSO TELNET and via TCP/IP
go through the TCP/IP stack in another z/OS mainframe and get the NVAS
logon screen on this system ->
logon here and run normal tso/ispf. No 'network-SNA' involved - only
'application SNA'.
Confused - not when I do it - only when I shall explain it - - ehhr ;-)

Other than confusion over which TELNET client may be being used, it may be
that there is some confusion over what "*from* a z/OS host" means. Does
this imply using the TSO TELNET client as most responders have assumed or
does it mean a TN3270 connection to a TN3270 server in one system where
the SNA application accessed is in another system? This latter
interpretation
may be what you are assuming. There is no surprise here since it is SNA
business-as-usual.
