I am in the final stages of setting up a SNA server for connectivity to IBM
for an existing client. Due to the time restraints I had to use an SNA
server I knew ,although vaguely, how to configure and went with MS SNA sp4
but now that I have it ready I can play around with replacing it and
perhaps a couple others with Linux-SNA. I have read over the site at
http://www.linux-sna.org/ and seems pretty straightforward but was
wondering if anyone here has had experience setting up linux as an SNA
server. I will be utilyzing standard Ethernet and 802.2 DLC services on the
SNA and I configured the routers to use DLSw so basically I just point to
the MAC address on the remote side via the Ethernet adapter bound by the
DLC protocol and create the LUs on the server to mimic those created on the
mainframe.

Anyone done anything like this on linux?
