What do you mean by "via VTAM"? Is your colleague using a real 3270 device? If not, what, and how is it connected? > I can reproduce this.

Regardless, you can't connect to TSO without VTAM (or conceivably TCAM!); there is no direct TCP/IP to TSO connection. You need VTAM and TCAS in the loop, unless IBM has slipped a big change past me recently.
