Re: SSL support

There is a pretty good setup article in the IBM iSeries knowledge base.

http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.nsf/slkbase

Search using "17615517" (the document number) you should have a hit on  
"SSL and Secure Telnet Server Configuration".  Make sure you have the 
correct licensed programs installed (Cryptographic Access Provider and 
Digital Certificate Manager).

The Mochasoft site has a good overview as well. 
(http://www.mochasoft.dk/tn5250.htm)

It has been a little while since I have set this up but I'll give you 
help where ever I can.  Once the Certificate is set up and assigned to 
telnet, you just want to make sure that your telnet settings allow SSL 
(CHGTELNA ALWSSL (*YES) )

The SSLInstructions.html just has this:

- /Tested with Sun JRE 1.4.0_01-b03 <http://java.sun.com> on Win2K & XP/
*Security Policy File Installation*
1. Download Security Policy java.policy 
<file:///c:/Program%20Files/tn5250j/java.policy>.
2. Read Instructions in java.policy to install/setup policy file.
3. Restart Browser

That is about it.
