Can you run pc3270 on a machine with WHIP installed (AIX PS/2 V1.1)?
The "magic incantation" of
d3270 d .2d0-2df.9.ce000-cffff.
has been included in /etc/dosdev.
When I "dos +ad3270", get into DOS, and run pc3270, I can enter
ONE keystroke. This keystroke is echoed. Further keystrokes are
ignored, EXCEPT I can toggle out of the mainframe session back to DOS,
and I can ALT-keypad-5 to remove pc3270
Now my first thought was that you can't run a DOS 3270 when WHIP is
installed; my second thought was that I had something wrong in /etc/dosdev.
BUT, when I run our in-house 3270 emulation, it runs just fine.
What does pc3270 use beyond the above? I ran DEBUG on it, as far as I
could, and see that it accesses port 0x21 (the PIC, I think). When I
added port 0x21 to /etc/dosdev, it did not help.
