The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY

IBM Personal Communications/3270 WorkStation Program (IBM PC/3270) version 4.0 supports the SNA Server Windows client interface.

MORE INFORMATION

To run this application on top of an SNA Server Windows client computer:

  1. The SNA Server Windows client software must first be installed on the Windows or Windows for Workgroups computer. Any SNA Server client-server connection method can be selected.

NOTE: Refer to Article Q145885 (Running 16-bit 3270/FMI Applications on Windows NT & Windows 95) for more details on how to run the SNA Server
Win3x client on Windows 95,    Windows NT, and on the SNA Server system
itself. However, the Win3x client software will not run directly on SNA Server because the Win32 SNA client software is installed there by default.

  1. 3270 LUs must be assigned to the user or group (or Everyone user) within the Users and Groups window of SNA Server Admin.

  2. Configure PC/3270 to use this interface:

        - Run the Personal Communications "Start/Configure Sessions" icon
    

        - Choose the Communication/Configure dialog. Set:
    

             Adapter:   LAN
             Attachment:   FMI  Windows NT - client
    
        - Choose the Configure button. This will automatically retrieve the
          3270 LUs assigned to the user/group within the SNA Server
          configuration file. Select an LU from the list.
