Unix ----> IBM Mainframe

Unix ----> IBM Mainframe

Post by Philip Abrah » Sun, 14 Aug 1994 01:31:59



I'd like to make a connection from the Unix side to an IBM
mainframe from within a C program. What is the best way to
do this?

When I use pipes to telnet to the mainframe every once in
a while I'll get the "MORE" prompt from the mainframe
that causes my program to hang - waiting from input in the
pipe. I've tried turning on telnet 'line-by-line' mode
but I still get the MORE prompt. Is there some better method
of communicating with the mainframe so that all I get is raw
data and not terminal control stuff like "MORE"?  

Help!!
