Re: AS/400 to AS/400 not by LAN

I was informed by IBM that a null modem cable would not work.  Something
about the timing on the ports.  I had to buy a modem Eliminator ($300) and
then installed it and configured SNA.  Everything is now currently working
perfectly.


Ps. I connected a B-10 to a new 200.
