Hi all,
I have a situation where we'd like to replace SNA connections to remote
printers with pure TCP/IP.
The print devices are ordinary LAN printers like HP LaserJet, etc.
Currently these are connected by DLSw-attached Microsoft HIS servers.

why do you need to use a PDT? or think you should? IBM pccom is support PDT.
you can define in your VTAM several IP LU . and open several pcom on a

We use VPS/TCPIP and I do not see why it would be a larger project to implement
than setting up TN3270 for printing, which is a lot less flexible, so I heard.
Our VTAM applications use DRS/VPI, another LRS product, along with VPS/IP to do
the actual printing.
And LRS support has been great

We also use VPS, VPS/TCPIP, DRS, DRS/TCPIP. We run about 500-600 active

Your HMC should have 'phoned home' and IBM should have attempted to contact
