Re: iAccess vs ACS question

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Admiral Grace Hopper would have a field day beating up these people!

The old emulator is not supported on Windows 10 and will not be 
supported at all by this time next year. It will receiver no further 
updates while the newer better ACS will continue to evolve and receive 
updates.

You can suppress the sign on by using single sign on. There is no 
optional to use the windows userID and Password with ACS as there was 
with iSeries Access. This is partly because Windows keeps changing and 
partly because ACS runs on Windows Linux AND MAC.
