Re: VPN access

["Aaron Abreu" <abreual@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

before we had VPN we simply used our
PowerTerm software to emulate 5250 from
our home computers and then relyed on
400 security to control who could get into the
system.

so yes, if you have a client emulater that everyone
could intall, then you could run withou VPN, but what
is the "security risk" factor.  VPN is all about a secure
link before you allow someone to even touch your 400.

can you put a price on that??
