Don,

I'd bet you had a Novell SAA server that was used by the emulation software
in your scanners.  This was a common requirement for older emulation
software, and as I recall, it was disabled with V5, along with support for
many of the DOS based APPC PC Support packages.  I doubt that anyone could
have fixed your old scanners, since it would require new emulation software
and network connectivity....

I don't think a server program was involved though I could be wrong.  We
don't really know.  The vendor that sold us the equipment wanted some large
number of dollars in "support" money just to look at the problem.  Instead
of paying that, we purchased new equipment.  We don't have security auditing
turned on so there are no security audit journal entries to look at.

Did Symbol have a server pgm running on the AS400? Any security audit jrn
entries related to
this?
I've seen release upgrades cause non-IBM
hardware to drop when the hardware is not up to IBM's spec. Did the vendor
give any indication they knew what was going on?
