Re: Browser-Based Emulation

I am probably biased because I monitor the project and have done some coding on it, as well as we have integrated it into our Open source menuing and program access tool that runs in a browser (full disclosure!) but it is very mature, stable, and full featured. It can also be configured to run as an applet, like the Mochasoft product. Did I mention it is free?

It also has an excellent Java interface so that it can be easily integrated into Java application, which is what we did. I also have an implementation of it that runs within a browser (not as an applet, it runs as a servlet and generates HTML, much like iSeries Access for the Web, except faster, lighter weight and Open Source). I hope to get it posted as a project on SourceForge soon (much to do, much to do....)

Give tn5250j a try....runs on Windows, Mac OS and Linux....

Haven't tried it yet, so any feedback from those who have used it would be appreciated.

Hi folks -

Looking for ideas/recommendations for a browser-based emulator. Have a
requirement for remote access...I don't want to/can't load iSeries
Access on the incoming devices.
How about Host On Demand? Who uses it? Is it good stuff? What do you
need on the iSeries? What's the LICPGM? How much does it cost?

What other tools are out there besides HOD?

I appreciate the help...
