Re: tcp/ip terminal emulator program

["Bill Phelps" <phelpswr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We also use Rumba/400 that came with the Win3.11 version of CA/400.  
We use it for Win3.11 clients and Win/95 clients.  It is stable and 
easy to install and use.  We have it configured for TCP/IP.  It will 
also work as a remote client using winsock.

For printing, we use our Novell 4.1 server.  It has LPD support, so 
we make a netware queue for each user or department. On the AS/400 
when an outq is created, we set it up as *IP, the IP address of the 
Netware server and the Netware queue name.  The AS/400 then sends the 
printouts to the netware server.  Though direct printing is quicker, 
this setup will deliver printouts in a reasonable amount of time.  
For us, usually less than 25 seconds.

Hope this helps....
