Hello Carmen, no, as far as I'm aware the 3174 configuration on port 0 from the maintenance disk can only be done with a CUT terminal, while the 3290 is a DFT device. I use a 3179 terminal for configuration. -Dave -- Dave McGuire President/Curator, Large Scale Systems Museum New Kensington, PA ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
