re: Client Access

[boothm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Why do people ask me ask me these questions?  Its all I can do to keep up
with RPG.

Anyway, I can dial to an ASCII Controller on an AS/400, V3R2, and connect
using a product called 3164 Emulator from a company named Productivity
Syatems, Inc.  Good product, works fine.  But the only file transfer
protocol supported is Xmodem.

Now I've been asked to try Client Access for Win 3.1 to see how it's file
transfer works.   I have the IBM CD-ROM and ran the install process, and I
think I answered all of the questions correctly.  

But it doesn't dial the phone.  
Am I leaving out an important step?
Can Client Access connect directly to an ASCII workstation controller from
a regular PC modem?   

It asked me for my modem brand & model, and it asked me for the phone
number, so I know some program in there cared but it acts like it needs
another protocol layer.  Or something.
