Re: BPCS Menus and Telnet Client (5250) other than Client Access

["Bill Robins" <brobins3d@xxxxxxxxx>]

A wild guess?  The clients were using names such as QTCP000001.  The thing to remember is BPCS works best with device names of a length 8 or less.  So, most of your clients were using the same data area and user space.

 

If you can name these sessions try a shorter name and see what happens.

Subject: BPCS Menus and Telnet Client (5250) other than Client Access

I was recently looking at some TN5250 clients other than Client Access and noticed strange behavior

on almost all of the telnet applications we tried.  When you go through the BPCS menu and go back to the menu whatever you typed is ignored and you get whatever the first menu choice was regardless of what you typed...you cannot even signoff.  I found this to be the case on all telnet clients other than CA and one

applet in a browser package.  Has any one run across this before?

 

Thanks,

 

Mark
