User Reviews

  • only supports libssl0.9.7 ? ive been trying to compile against newer libssl but have had no success.
  • Fantastic, mainly due to it's simplicity and full functionality. Does exactly what I need it to, without tons of extra junk.
  • good project
  • It's a nice piece of software, clean and effective. The devs need to be warned that the SSLv2 is not included any more in a lot of distributions. Thus making tn5250 uncompilable. Debian and its derivative Ubuntu, for example, is not providing such a useful program since long now.
  • excellent application.
