Well, you might try Rocket Terminal emulator Web edition. Its web based, but you have to have the server running somewhere in the shop. We happen to be trying it right now in a zCX container on z/OS. Dave Jousma Vice President | Director, Technology Engineering From: IBM Mainframe

"Outdated" terminal emulators? They wish. Not that I have anything against new and especially better ideas. But I think Attachmate, Rocket, QWS3270 and others work just fine. --- Bob Bridges, robhbrid...@gmail.com, cell 336 382-7313 /* There are few things more discouraging to the mind that

Re: Any recommendations for a 3270 emulator for Android

I have used Mocha TN3270 also. I believe the lite version limits you to 5 minutes of connect time. Not bad if you only need to make a quick change. The purchase price for the full version is inexpensive, IIRC under $30 USD, and once purchased you can install on multiple Android devices.

I've just done the first part of the install of SAS 9.4, not the easiest of jobs. I built the Software Depot on my laptop then used the Windows TAR command (which I didn't know existed) to create a tar file of each of the 10 directories. Then uploaded these to a ZFS on the mainframe and used
