RE: Every day emulation (Speaking of WRQ...)

  It will be interesting to see what, if anything, NetIQ tries to do with 
regard to integrating their "Cadillac" iSeries audit and security solution 
(PentaSafe) with the offerings/capabilities of Reflection (or any other iSeries 
functions they happen to cover):

  Add WRQ Reflection to your list. Works well, handles 5250 and 3270 emulations.
  I've got PComm (Personal Communications) 5.8 which I think is still the 
latest. Basically, PComm is the CA emulator(neither will install if 
  The other is loaded). PComm is nice if you just want a straight emulator. It 
does 5250, 3270 and some ascii emulations. It can connect via IP,
  SNA, and even twinax (using an emulation card).
  The "classic" thin client would be a 5250 terminal.
