I'd love to set SNA up & running on Hercules but I think it's TCP/IP only...
:(
I've always wondered about the fesability of doing a reverse tn3270 gateway... As to
pretend you are a FEP and to serve 3270 sessions you pull from a tn3270 gateway.... I
should have kept network captures when I had SNA access to a 390 years ago.. :|

Where should we go from here? Setting up our own virtual X.25 PSDN tunnelled over IP

SNA! SNA! :)
I could set up Hercules here running MVS 3.8J ... ;) I'm sure the folks have been
able to get SNA to work within the emulator. I set up Hercules and MVS once, but other
than a novelty, I really didn't do much with it, because most of my associates
wouldn't know a mainframe if it ran them over. I think it would be interesting to
get something quasi-public (on HECmet) going.

Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a
polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they
prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.
