Re: compiling on iSeries

[Jay Moore <jmoore@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to remotely access the iSeries securely on a blackberry.  I 
have an ssh client for the blackberry phone, so I can ssh to the Linux 
partition on the iSeries, then use tn5250 to access the iSeries and have 
the communications encrypted.  Does this not sound reasonable?  Is there 
a better way to access iSeries remotely over an encrypted network?

Thanks,
Jay
