Part 2 We also need to give them z39.50 access to accurately show current shelving status of individual items. I believe our Koha installation is still using Zebra for this, so we should have a z39.50 service already working. I am able to handle port forwards through our external firewall without issue, but I need to know what to forward, and what kind of authentication information they will need. Any help is appreciated.
