Hello, ou there in IBM land.  We're just starting out with IBm equipment here
after not having any IBM on campus for about 17 years.  Please don't laugh,
I joined this group so I might learn something from the rest of you.  Anyway,
here's my question.  We'll have a 3720-1 controller, and a 3174-1L contoller,
and TCP/IP under VM/IS.  Does anybody have the answers to the following:

  - does IBM (or any one else) provide Ethernet hardware.  Our SE is checking
      and someone else thinks its an option in one of these controllers
  - does anyone know about 3270 emulation for PC equipment over Ethernet
     I'm looking here for probably a hsot and workstation product

We will be furnished with TCP/IP under VM/IS but I don't really know anything
about IBM's product.  I doubt if this will help me.

Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated.
