RE: Green screen and network security

I like the Mochasoft TN5250.  Small client, works great, costs little.
Also look at the ActiveX browser product, needs no special client just IE.
Both support  SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for security.

Subject: Green screen and network security

We're having some discussions about what would be the most secure way to
provide users traditional green screen access across a network while
protecting the security of the network.
 
Some ground rules/assumptions are:
 
- Telnet to well know ports (23,25,80) is blocked.
- The applications involved can't be changed. (e.g. to make them web
friendly, must be green screen)
- Only network security is at issue, once they sign on, the iSeries/400
takes over.
- Would prefer no user side software be installed but, if required, it
should be minimal.
 
Anyone want to jump in with their ideas?
