Re: IBM 3090 - 191 running VSE and Ethernet

Well,

        I have done Token Ring from a 3741-01L, buss connected. As well as
from the 3745 communications Controller.  But, it's been years, last one I
worked on was a 200E.

        I did send you note offline to a friend who is more current in this
area than I am. I will get back to you, if he gets back to me...
