I suggest that you urge your management to buy a package you don't have to support. (I still find it hard to believe that CICS and IMS don't speak TCP/IP for printing.)
If you want to install and support your own, there was a package called SNAPRSIM written by Bruce Crabill on the 1998 VM Workshop tape. I found it on the web at Fran Hensler's web site: http://zvm.sru.edu/~DOWNLOAD/ . I have been using this for several years and support several hundred printers. ____________________________________ Rick Barlow Senior z/VM Systems Programmer Nationwide Services Co., Web-zLinux Support, z/VM and System z Linux Support One Nationwide Plaza MB-02-201 Columbus OH 43215-2220 U.S.A Voice: (614) 249-5213 Fax: (614) 249-3912 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux on 390 Port <LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU> wrote on 08/10/2007 06:41:56 PM: > LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU > > >Have you thought about software like VPS > > I have found a lot of good out of VPS, except for one thing. > The price tag. > The last time I looked at it, we just couldn't afford it. > I can't go into many specifics, but it was going to be almost a > million for the first year and 200K for every year after. > Not a very large shop. > > - > Too busy driving to stop for gas! > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, > send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit > http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
