We are going to be adding a IBM 9370 VM/CMS machine to our centre and wish to be able to exchange files and mail between systems. What options do we have make this connection? Does anyone have any comments or suggestions on how we should go about this? Are there any products that would allow the IBM system to connect to the ethernet? Act like a decnet node? What kind of costs (software and hardware) are we looking at? Any and all help would be appreciated ...
