XTerm and Telnet don't support "device licensing" - you can use them as Termulators just fine, but each connection counts as a separate database license slot.
With Device Licensing (Enterprise, Workgroup, or the more recent Device Licensing for Server release), a specific (variable) protocol exchange between the client and server allows multiple Telnet session from the same client PC to count as one license slot (within limits), If you want to use this feature with a non-U2 Termulator, then the Termulator needs the IBM DLls and API implemented to support this, No DLLS and API - No Device Licensing.

Can I ask why you just don't use xterms and telnet in linux? You can map function keys and so on with .Xmodmap and/or .Xdefaults Jeff Butera, Ph.D. Administrative Systems Hampshire College [EMAIL PROTECTED] 413-559-5556 "He works out of his home office doing technical training.
