Just did a test from my Windows system across to Hercules, and I can start
many (well, 3) connections to the Hercules console port, all working.

There is some vagueness in the TN3270 portion of Hercules, but this sounds
like something different.  Name resolution shouldn't be a problem -- if you
can get there the first time, you should get there subsequent times.  Try
posting to the Hercules mailing list with the symptoms and any error
messages you get.

Yep, you're right!
