Had it set up and working at a customer site.  OS/400 V3R7 with Win95
CA/400 V3R1M2.  All seemed to work fine, EXCEPT in PC5250 if you tried
to display certain user app screens, or run STRSST, or press the F1 help
key when in an IBM command prompt, the session would lock then drop, and
display an undocumented comm error 103.  We haven't resolved it yet.
