When you connect you need to specify the LUNAME configured in the 2074,
then it goes something like:
       x3270 LUNAME@ipaddress:3270

In our installation the LUNAME corresponds to the LPAR name, so it might be:
       x3270 LINUX1@ipaddress:3270

I believe the port on the 2074 is configurable, but the default is 3270

Hi, we have just installed our new z800, we are using one 2074 to get the

tn3270e emulator

As Paul posted, x3270 should work ok (I use x3270 to connect to MP3000 and
P/390 machines, and the 2074 uses the same code...).


we try to use x3270 but obviusly it get an "unknown
error" when we try to connect to the 2074

More information required.  Is the error on the Linux box, or on the 2074?
Is it in the 3270 window on x3270?

I think it's a configuration problem.  I'm pretty sure the 2074 uses a
non-standard tn3270 port (not the usual telnet port 23 but something like
7490, just like the MP3000 and P/390 do).  You will need to configure this
in x3270, but doing this is tricky and version dependent (from my
experience).  You can try either of the following:

# x3270 ipaddress:7490
# x3270 ipaddress 7490

but the one that should work, regardless of version, is

# x3270 --port 7490 ipaddress

Of course, confirm that 7490 is the correct port number on your 2074;
substitute the right value if it's not 7490.

Hope this helps,
