Re: SNA SERVER & THE AS/400

["Jerome Draper" <jdraper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The NS/Router is not a pre-requisite for emulation on an SNA Server so
eliminating it is not an issue.  To prove the point you can download the
demo version of Synapse WinAPPC at http://www.synapse.com and try it
yourself.  You will get display, printer, and file transfer running over SNA
Server (or TCP/IP, or NS/Router, btw).  This is a robust product that has
been around for years.  It runs on any flavor of Windows from 3.1 to XP.

Claimer:  I sell, support, use, and recommend Synapse products and have
since 1988 and will forever.

too many problem with the folks administring the server giving a steady
connection for a whole week without some kind of a glitch, that disconnects
the users.  I also want to eliminate the NS Router emulation and go with CAE
cause NS Router is not supported on Win2K, which is the current OS of choice
in my environment.  So I have VB folks saying they can not go to Win2k
because they have code written that will not work if OS is changed from
Win95 to Win2k.
