We use the method Jim described below.
We use different subsystem workstation name entries to place the users in various subsystems.

We have 5 different applications, each have their own interactive subsystem and batch subsystem.

Subject: Re: Telnet server multiple instances?

Yes, you can achieve your goal with a routing program and multiple subsystems. I don’t believe you can run multiple telnet servers but you really don’t need to. Even at V4R5.

I have samples that both Larry and I ( and another fellow named Paul Weyer) used at Common conferences called Advanced Work Management.

You will need to identify the user somehow, and we usually used the accounting code in the user profile for that purpose.

If I get time tomorrow I’ll post it in the wiki, or if you have a COMMON membership you might find it in one of the session lists, although it’s been awhile since either of us taught that class.

Each subsystem can be set up to use a different language if they are installed on the system.

Contact me privately and I can send you all the code which will compile at V4.

Hello,

is it possible to have multiple instances of the telnet service, on different ports? Maybe even under ancient OS like V4R5?

Why? I'm searching for a way to differ job routing depending on how the client connects, so the session gets routed to a separate SBS (maybe QINTER2) with a non-system-default (secondary) language, and a different signon-screen.

Hard coding the LU name in the client-connection for routing-decision is a no-go, because this is error prone for unexperienced users. Also, users connecting via vt100 cannot provide a LU name. I'm searching for a fool-proof solution.

Also, since I don't know about any free, browser-based 5250 client, I guess this way is also a no-go.

Ideas, anyone?
