Re: ACS 1.1.7.2 5250 console sessions

[Jack Woehr <jwoehr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just noticed this message from Steve Pavlichek ... I had been trying to
create a Console session using the Session Manager (just for fun, since I
usually access the Console via the 5250 Console option).

Ran into the same problem ... is that IBM patch generally available
anywhere?
