It may be possible for MiniSoft to modify one of it's existing products to
log all emulator traffic on an intermediate system.  Secure Javelin
operates through an middle system that provides the encryption service.  As
this system handles all the packets anyway; we could modify it to create
log files of the connections. In technical support, we have tools that can
read/play packets captures.

As it stores the files on a isolated system, you can easily lock it down to
prevent users from modifying any files on it. By placing it "in front of"
the HP3000, all network traffic would need to pass through it.

This does not address serial devices.

Details of how to pass the printing out would have to be worked out.

Is there sufficient interest to make the changes and create a product?
Please reply if you do.
