Guy has this running with a 3174 and ethernet interface.
Jay has it working with token ring.
I have all the parts to put this together, just no time to work on it right now.
As for using
telnet on the 3174, I'm going by what I've seen posted on Hercules mailing lists
about how others have
connected real terminals to the Hercules mainframe emulator.? A few pictures of such
terminals connected to Hercules
can be found at:
http://CoreStore.org/emuterm.htm
I should look for more details.? It sounds like some 3174's, with proper firmware,
can actually function in both
directions.
Coax connected 3270 terminals using the 3174 as a gateway to connect to something across
the network (Token Ring or
maybe Ethernet) via telnet. I suspect this is what a number of Hercules systems are
doing.
