It has nothing to do whether or not you are connecting to the VM system
locally or remotely (what's the diff? :-)). The *old* version of
tn3270 you have does not work properly for VM/XA. The latest version
of tn3270 is 4.1.1 and works properly for VM/XA, however I know of
no port to SGI available. I started to try it (the port) and ran into more
problems the further and further I went along. For the older version,
I just kacked and hacked without caring too much about what I was doing
and it suddenly worked! But, this one requires more effort. When
I find the time ...
