Here's another thought: download a TN5250 client such as that available from
www.mochasoft.dk (a licensed version is only $25 single user or $250 per
company) and connect with it. Use it long enough to determine if the
problems are AS/400-Telnet-IP stack-related or if they are inside CA/400.
Has the oily smell of CA/400 roadkill to me!
