Does the question assumes use of 4.3?  There are several AIX based packages
that support this, depending on the protocol to be used between the RT and
the 3174 (or whatever is on the 370 side).  These are listed in the RT
catalog; I'd list some of them here, but I'm typing this at home without
access to the catalog.  (To answer the precise question above, I used to
use the em78 package for this purpose, but now I use telnet/ftp across a
token ring/8232 connection instead.)
