RE: Non-TCP/IP based remote AS/400 connectivity solution

["Chuck Lewis" <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Guys,

Can't speak for Cynthia so she will have to clarify this, but my read on
what she said was if TCP/IP was shutdown or something, another non-TCP/IP
method would be needed to access the system. The ONLY reason this even
occurred to be is because last month, per our IBM CE, I had to reset the IOP
that our IBM 9427 (problem child) tape unit is on. Well that also controls
our Ethernet card. So I knew it would knock down all of our branches. So
that night at home, not thinking to clearly :-) I connected to our AS/400
via our VPN (VERY fast) and started this process. And my session
terminates... So I fire up PC/Anywhere and get in fine (but slow) and see
that of course my remote VPN session would have ended since TCP/IP was
ended. I let the IOP reset complete and then fired it back up...

HTH,

Chuck
