Re: Telnet sessions and freeware/shareware etc.

["David Shea" <dshea@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

WSG is practically impossible to use if you've got a firewall between you
and the AS400.  WSG changes IP ports constantly, so it's virtually useless.

Check my page for a bunch of links to freeware/shareware/retailware:

The Java applet is really cool - runs under IE4 and higher.  A little
quirky, but small, quick and easy.
Albert York's TN5250 client link seems to have disappeared.  Anyone know
what happened to Albert?
TNBridge works well, but no printer support.
TN/400 (delphi) works well, but it's undocumented and you can't re-map keys.
If you want freeware to connect printers, it's IDEAL and it WORKS.

For shareware, Mocha's 5250 is good, but their printer stuff won't work on a
dialup. It needs a fixed IP address and may not survive the trip through a
firewall or proxy server.
TN3270Plus has no printer support.
My favorite is Nexus Mainframe Terminal - the terminal emulation is very
nice, it's only $50, and it will soon (I'm told) do 5250 printer emulation.
This will make it complete and inexpensive.

Good luck.
