Re: Telnet 5250 in Linux or Browser

Could be I am not understanding how the HMC plays here. My understanding would be that tn5250j is installed ON the HMC, just like in Linux, and so the JVM installed on the HMC would be an issue to consider. But, I don't have an HMC and haven't used one for months so I may not be grasping the issue.

Doubt it's the JVM--isn't that running on the client running tn5250j which then connects to the HMC? I suspect the issue is yet another aspect of the incomplete data stream implementation. I suspect the 5250 data stream via HMC is wrapped in something else--perhaps a passthrough data stream. This could be sufficiently different to confuse tn5250j. Probably not difficult to fix but something for you to consider. I suggest getting a trace of the connexion and initial data stream to see what's really going on.
