Re: Thin Client recommendations

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i have "not" had fun with Attachmate thin client. Ask the vendor's who's
telnet
they use? One customer bought a couple diff brands, some were using an older
version of Powerterm (before they fixed some of their bugs!). Since it's
hardwired
(no disk) they had no way to update.
You want some sort of up to date telnet (ask the version level).
Named devices like CA has.
Fully functional tn5250 printing? with lot's of printer product choices.
Some can actually load Client Access on a Citrix server and use that.
I have found printing, especially the both win and tn5250 printing the
biggest headache.
Simple things like "default printer" session (same device name) are not
always there.
