PC dial up connection to AS400 -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

We have a remote site that now requires dial up access to our AS400e for a
couple of hours each day (for simple 5250 green screen and printing).

What would be the simplest method to link them up (and what additional
hardware/software would be required) ?

Just a few points :-
1.    The AS400e is at v4r2
2.    It has 3 spare communications ports.
2.    It is connected via TCP/IP to a Novell 4.11 network (that doesn't have
a modem
       attached!).
3.    We currently use Client Access v3r1m3.
4.    The remote site will probably be using a PC with Windows 95 or 98.


Thanks in advance...

Stephen Hunt
