Re: WindowsNT-AS400 connection?

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scotty:
Connect the AS400 to the TR Network via a router.  Use a Frame Relay circuit
between the location that has the AS400 and the location that has the
mainframe and NT server.  There are many ways to do it.  Send me an email
off line if you'd like to discuss.

Subject: WindowsNT-AS400 connection?


>This is the first time I have used MIDRANGE-L, I hope this question is
>not too far off line for this list. We currently have a multihomed
>WindowsNT Server at our corporate offices in PA. This server uses an
>Ethernet adapter to communicate with approx. 25 users on a Windows 95
>peer to peer network and a Token-Ring adapter connection to talk to a
>9221-130 mainframe VSE/ESA system running TCP/IP for VSE. These two
>boxes are in the same room and the connection is made over a 14-foot
>Token-ring cable. Another division of our company in Nashville TN. has
>an AS400 2043 model 310. We currently have a 9600bps SNA leased line
