I agree with you that a client/server scenario is a MUCH better solution
than using the mostly-obsolete GDDM.

But as a side note, I wanted to mention that we have software called
"IDEAComm Midrange Client" that will do a 5292-2 under windows. (I believe
it even does tn5250 over TCP/IP!  But probably doesnt support device
naming)
