Re: Remote Ethernet

[Tom <tomh@xxxxxxxxx>]

One way might be to:

- install/configure TCP/IP on your iSeries
- on your firewall, direct port 23 to your iSeries (also 449, 8470-8476
for iSeries Access)
- install an exit program on your iSeries to control what IP addresses
are allowed to get a telnet session; drop the connection if not allowed
- install a telnet client on the remote PC (MochaSoft, iSeries Access,
etc)
- using your remote telnet client, open a connection to the public IP
address of your firewall/router
---- which should direct the port 23 request to your iSeries
------ the exit program would check the IP address, dropping the
connection if not one your allowed addresses (it should also log all
connections, whether accepted or not).
- if you need to configure a remote printer, you could hang one off of
one your iSeries Access clients (LPT1) at the remote site.
