RE: want to allow easy home access to iSeries

Go choice it your Network Administrators allow Remote Access software through the FireWall. Ours don't ... Well, actually our corporate policy doesn't allow it...

If you want an alternative to logmein to evaluate I used GotoMyPC.com for quite a while with great success. I had no hesitation in paying for it; there was no free version, but there was a free evaluation period which sold me on the product.

I'm not saying one is better than other, just that alternatives are handy to have.

Why not use Logmein.com ?

Set up an internal desktop with just the apps on it that are needed and let them at it.

No cost and no open firewall ports.

If you decide to open up Telnet, you might want to open up Port 21023 and map to Port 23 or similar so it doesn't sniff like a Telnet port if someone hits the address.
