Hello,

If I understand correctly, PASE is a unix (AIX)-like subsystem on IBM
i and predecessors.

I'm having the following setup in mind:
* install GCC on PASE
* install OpenSSHD on PASE
* install tn5250 console client on PASE

I want to use this setup to encrypt the TN5250 traffic, and I know I
can use SSL on the TELNETD. The issue with that is that I'm mostly
on-the-road and this is a test/dev system at home, and I want to run
the tn5250 client on the AS/400e (V5R1) itself so I can basically use
any PC w/ putty/openssh/<insert your most favorite SSH client here>. I
also want to use it as an SSH tunnel to access the other services at
the machine/my lan, and this setup might solve all those things at once.

Now the questions are:
* is this setup possible?
** which are the drawbacks to such a setup, knowing that this is not
production hardware, but a spare device to carry out quick tests?
* how do I install AIX software on it? Can I use those GCC packages?
* can I use the normal init scripts to auto-start daemons in PASE?

I tried searching the interwebs and the IBM site, but all the
information is about more recent releases (V5R4+), and in the past I
ran into issues because of some things which weren't supported yet.
