IBM has a box called the 8232 whisch does that. They also have TCP/IP software called ?? FAL ?? for both the MVS and VM operating systems to go along with that box. There is also a company called Advanced Computer Communications, (ACC) 720 Santa Barbara Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101. tel (805) 334-9431 Which has TCP/IP software for MVS and I think they also have the hardware to connect the 370 to ethernet. Anyways I suggest you contact the following people for more info: Joe Ragland tel (919) 549-0671 James Kitchen tel (919) 962-1622 ----------------------------------------------- Reply-To: Rostyslaw Jarema Lewyckyj urjlew@ecsvax.UUCP , urjlew@unc.bitnet or urjlew@uncvm1.acs.unc.edu (ARPA,SURA,NSF etc. internet) tel.
