We have looked at SunLink and MITEK. What we are looking for is a gateway or server solution, where the gateway/server is directly connected to the IBM mainframe (via channel, coax or RS-232 attachment) on one side and attached to a TCP/IP Ethernet on the other. We would like to know about any solutions like this or similar and also any comments from people on personal experiences. Thanx for any replies.
