RE: Client Access questions

["John Cirocco" <john_cirocco@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Larry,

Found an old V3R1M3 CD and did minimal install.  Worked like a champ.
 Now I onder why my 3 IBM contacts didn't figure this out.  They wanted
me to do $/hour support line to figure out my problem.

Thanks to everyone who helped...

John
