By open, I was referring to the fact that not all z/OS Lpars are running TCPIP (Those not may well be very few) and all should be firewalled to some extent.
I have to admit I've never tried from a native 3270, but when logged on to one Lpar's TSO/ISPF via my emulator(we currently use QWS from Jolly Giant), the command TSO TELNET ipaddr easily reaches the TN3270 server in another Lpar, shows the MSG10 screen and lets me logon. I first used this doorway via the Hipersocket link when the SEGMENTAIONOFFLOAD issue of the OSA cards bit me in the posterior. Now it's helpful as I move to multiple stacks in our multiple security zones. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Mason Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2008 4:50 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: TN3270 *from* a host?? Dave Please be more specific about what you actually achieve here. "the command TSO TELNET ip address will reach the TN327o server running on a TCPIP open z/OS LPAR" is not in dispute - with or without the "open" whatever you may mean by that, perhaps the z/OS UNIX TELNET server (otelnetd). Do you eventually enter your TSO commands one line at a time with no support from ISPF? > what do you think you're reaching when you use (what ever TN3270) emulator you're using on your Window$ desktop? Typically, you are using the so-called TN3270 function and your TN3270(E) client (from whatever "desktop" platform) will be relying on 3270 emulation not (previously?) available from the TELNET client function supplied by the Communications Server IP component.
