OS/400 Telnet Client

Using the OS/400® Telnet Client command (STRTCPTELN or TELNET), you can specify the device name that is used to sign on to the server system.

A disadvantage to the default approach is that it requires you to ensure that all usage of the STRTCPTELN (TELNET) commands specify the remote virtual display value appropriately. To alleviate this concern, you can create a custom version of the STRTCPTELN command to ensure the remote virtual terminal display value and invoke the IBM® supplied command.
