About This Evaluator’s Guide
Welcome to the RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide. We invite you to take a quick
product tour to better understand how RUMBA provides powerful, secure browser-based host
access that minimizes deployment, administrative and training costs in an organization. This
guide provides product highlights, introduces you to new product functionality, and describes
key features and benefits that distinguish RUMBA from other browser-based host access
products. See firsthand how easy it is to install, configure and deploy robust, small footprint
host access throughout your organization. Find out why organizations move to RUMBA Webto-Host to maximize their IT investment.
Product Overview
RUMBA Web-to-Host provides secure, browser-based host access that is cost-effective,
reliable, and easy to manage. The product can be used to deploy host access clients across an
intranet and/or extranet from virtually any Web server, lowering Total Cost of Ownership
(TCO) by eliminating the need to configure individual desktops during initial installation and
future updates. Business users can work with information residing on IBM® Mainframe, IBM
AS/400®, Hewlett-Packard®, UNIX®, and DEC™ VAX™ systems.
Why RUMBA Web-to-Host?
Organizations rely on accessing information from and interacting with host applications. The
extent of that interaction varies greatly within an organization. RUMBA gives you the flexibility
to tailor host access according to need, greatly reducing computing overhead and expense,
while extending the value of host information to entirely new groups of users. With one
consistent and easy-to-use interface and set of administrative and deployment facilities,
RUMBA lets you support dedicated mainframe users, casual users, and mobile users.
Customers prefer RUMBA Web-to-Host products because they are easy to deploy, have a
smaller footprint on the user’s desktop, and enable a smooth migration from standard
Windows-based host access to browser-based host access. For users who need all of the rich
productivity features for interaction with legacy applications, traditionally associated with
dedicated PC-to-Host access products, RUMBA Web-to-Host is the ideal Web-based solution
and natural migration path. RUMBA is also the right solution for a new group of casual or
infrequent host information users. Extending the value of host resources has never been easier.
Low overhead, secure, and easy-to-use client software fits the requirements of an everwidening group of people who can benefit from access to host based information.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2
New Features
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 builds on RUMBA’s strengths in reducing the Total Cost of
Ownership (TCO), providing support for heterogeneous environments, and providing
expanded functionality for Java clients. Focused on enhancing user productivity with client
side scripting and user interface improvements, RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 provides the ideal
migration path for customers with dedicated PC-to-host access products.
Ease of Migration, Deployment and Management
A growing number of organizations are moving from Windows-based host access to RUMBA
Web-to-Host. These customers tell us that they selected RUMBA because it offers the widest
range of client technology and host support. With this new release, we make it easier than
ever for organizations to migrate to Web-based host access. Superior deployment
management capabilities make the transition fast and easy. User interface similarities between
NetManage’s Windows-based host access product, RUMBA OFFICE, and RUMBA Web-to-Host
minimize training and implementation time.
Reduces Total Cost of Ownership
NetManage continues to drive the total cost of host access ownership down through
streamlined deployment and administration with productivity features such as Single Sign On
and support for lower cost computing options such as Shared Desktops. With RUMBA Web-toHost, system administrators can install and configure browser-based host access in minutes
from a central Web server. They can distribute software updates and monitor software versions
without touching individual desktops, minimizing downtime and reducing the time
investment required from IT organizations.
Support Through NetManage’s New OnWeb® Management Services
By adding OnWeb Management Services (OMS), administrators can now create a
personalized portal view for individual users, remotely manage and control software and user
configurations, and set up new users quickly by importing existing Windows NT/2000 groups
and security profiles. OnWeb Management Services (sold separately) provides a single,
integrated solution to centrally administer and manage all NetManage browser-based clients;
simplifies software configuration and deployment; reduces administration costs; and makes
corporate information easier to access for internal and remote users.
Roaming/Multiple User Support
For today’s mobile work force and ad hoc work assignments, supporting roaming users is
more important than ever. RUMBA users can access their Web-to-Host profiles from any
network-connected desktop and stay connected at all times. When a user logs on to the
domain from a new desktop, the server will download that user’s profile information. As a
result, multiple users, each with their own preferences and settings, can share a single
desktop, which lowers support and hardware costs.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Single Sign On
For increased security and user productivity, RUMBA Web-to-Host provides Single Sign On
support utilizing IBM’s Express Logon Facility (ELF). Users get fast and easy one-click access to
host applications, which reduces logon errors and improves user productivity. ELF enables
users to log on to mainframe applications using a “digital passport” instead of entering a
series of cumbersome user IDs and passwords. This simplification also reduces support costs
by eliminating frequent help desk calls due to forgotten passwords.
Range of Client Implementation Options
Why dedicate valuable computing resources to functionality that doesn’t fit your users’ needs?
With RUMBA, you can select client software that best matches individual or group host access
requirements. Host Pro and Host Java clients offer rich terminal emulation functionality plus a
broad range of APIs, utilities, and desktop compatibility features. For users who access host
information intermittently, we offer the Host Express client.
Enhanced JAVA Host Access Functionality
In this latest release of RUMBA Web-to-Host, we added significant new capabilities to the Host
Java client. Now with a minimal application footprint, users will get the following new features:
■
■
■
AS/400 SQL File Transfer increases user productivity by providing the ability for the
end user to transfer AS/400 database queries/updates to and from the PC.
EHLLAPI Support enhances business process efficiencies and protects customers’
investments in custom application development by running existing or new HLLAPI
applications (16b and 32b) against the RUMBA Web-to-Host clients: Host Pro and Host
Java.
Floating Macro Toolbar increases user productivity by streamlining the operation of
a host application through an easy-to-use toolbar that enables users to easily execute
productivity macros that automate data entry and navigation within host applications.
Meets Industry Standards
RUMBA Web-to-Host is compatible with Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Designed to take
advantage of new operating system reliability and energy efficiency, RUMBA assures
interoperability with the latest Windows operating systems – easing system-wide administration.
Robust and Reliable Multi-Host Access
In the realm of Web-based host access, maintaining a host connection despite server
interruptions is critical for productivity. Uninterrupted host connectivity, also known as a
persistent connection, enables users to keep working even if the Web server they normally
access becomes unavailable. The Local Start feature lets users get connected and start work
whether the Web server is available or not. RUMBA Web-to-Host delivers persistent host
connections to mission-critical applications and data residing on virtually any host system.
Administrators can set up host sessions inside or outside of the browser window, gaining
valuable screen real estate for host applications. In the case of outside-the-browser sessions,
the initiating browser session can be terminated, leaving the host session window on the
desktop, thus conserving PC resources while reducing application “clutter” on the desktop.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide

Rich Client-Side Scripting
Support for a wide range of architectures and Application Program Interfaces (APIs) provides
maximum flexibility and convenience for programmers, developers, and other IT
professionals. RUMBA includes client-side scripting that lets programmers interact with one or
more host sessions within one Web page, creating new user interfaces or automating
repetitive processes. The programmer can also switch back and forth between a graphical
interface and the native “green screen” using the interface that best suits the user and their
application familiarity, and/or the application requirements. We give programmers the choice
of using industry-standard Javascript or VBScript to maximize their productivity.
Full Range of Robust Security Options
RUMBA Web-to-Host provides the enterprise with secure client-to-host communication for
intranet and extranet users. In addition to Secure Socket Layer support (SSL v3), RUMBA Webto-Host works well with third-party security options, adapting to the highest level of security
available via the organization’s host security, network security, firewalls, and Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs).
To deploy host access outside the firewall, NetManage’s RUMBA Security Services can be used
in conjunction with RUMBA Web-to-Host. RUMBA Security Service enables encryption of the
host data stream by tunneling the host data stream through a persistent, standard HTTPS link.
Rich security features within RUMBA protect your valuable information assets and make it
possible for you to extend the value of host resources to new types of users, both inside and
outside the organization.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Menus will then guide you through the installation procedure. The RUMBA Web-to-Host
software includes administrative code, a session configurator, and a publishing facility. As an
administrator, you can configure and deploy a wide variety of host sessions for thousands of
users with a single physical installation of RUMBA Web-to-Host.
This installation on a Windows 2000 (or Windows NT) Server will store the RUMBA
Web-to-Host files in a folder named w2hlegacy in the root-publishing directory
(c:\Inetpub\wwwroot) of your Web server. For other Web servers, you would also store the
w2hlegacy directory in their root-publishing directory.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 can be installed either as a full copy (with a valid license key) or as
a 60-day evaluation version. Select the evaluate option for the purposes of this tour.
Figure 3. Click on Evaluate to install the 60-day evaluation
version of RUMBA.
Once you have successfully installed RUMBA Web-to-Host, you are ready to configure and
publish host sessions.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide

Host Session Configuration
Configuring Host Sessions is a matter of matching emulation features to host functionality.
Rich-function emulators, such as those in RUMBA Web-to-Host, mirror the functionality of
host display sessions, printer sessions, or File Transfer Protocol (FTP) sessions. When we refer
to a session, we mean that a PC is connected to a host function via a Web browser, including
display screens, printing, or FTP file transfers. When connected to a host, users can interact
with the data and functionality in host applications.
Launch RUMBA Web-to-Host from the Start > Programs menu
on your Windows desktop.
Launching RUMBA will bring up the Web-to-Host Session Configuration Manager screen.
As an administrator, whenever you launch RUMBA, you will start with this screen.
Figure 4. The Web-to-Host Session Configuration Manager is your starting
point for creating and configuring host sessions for users.
Start by Creating a New Session
Each time you want to create or modify a host session, you will start with this screen. The
RUMBA Web-to-Host Session Configuration Manager includes instructions for configuring a host
session. From this window, you can create a new session, edit an existing session, or access
the RUMBA Conversion Utility. The RUMBA Conversion Utility allows seamless conversion of
previous versions of RUMBA Web-to-Host files, saving administrative time in deploying
upgrades and service packs, and thus reducing support costs. For this tour, we assume,
however, that you are configuring your first connection to the host with RUMBA Web-to-Host.
Throughout the configuration process, you can access topic-specific help by clicking on the
question mark icon.
Figure 5. Topic-specific help is available on all RUMBA Web-to-Host Screens. Simply click
on the question mark found at the bottom of any screen to get the information you need.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Step 1 – Click on Create or Edit Session
RUMBA Web-to-Host simplifies the configuration by a process we refer to as selective
disclosure. As an administrator, you are only offered those selections that match the type of
host session and client implementation you select.
Figure 6. RUMBA lets you select the client implementation that best
matches your users’ requirements.
Type refers to the type of host session you wish to configure. This correlates to the type of host
resource with which you wish to work. RUMBA supports nine types of host sessions including:
Display, Printer, and FTP from one centrally installed product. This provides flexibility and
reduces support costs, because many organizations may access different types of hosts within
a single department.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
9
Step 2 – Select Session Type and Implementation
For this tour, please select a Mainframe Display as your Type of session, and Pro Client as your
Client Implementation. Administrators base the choice of Client Implementation type on how
end-users need to interact with host applications, as well as how they will connect to the
mainframe. Users who require the most robust host interactivity features will use the Pro or
Java Client. Typically, these will be departmental users on an intranet whose job functions
include extensive interaction with host applications such as order entry or host-based
inventory systems. In contrast, sales professionals might need occasional access to the order
status screen and will utilize the Express Client to connect remotely and securely with a
minimal application footprint.
Step 3 – Click on Go
The Session Configuration Manager processes your selections and then selectively discloses all
options associated with Mainframe Display for Pro Client. The configuration process is
simplified because you can select from relevant options only. All Mainframe Display
configuration options appear on the left side of the screen. Clicking on any of these elements
reveals more configuration details for further customization.
10
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Step 4 – Enter an IP Address
In the Connection tab under the Pro Mainframe Display screen, enter the IP address of the host
machine. For purposes of this tour, you will connect to the mainframe public server for Hollis
Library at Harvard University (hollis.harvard.edu). If you choose instead to connect to your
own internal host system, please contact the host system administrator for the specific IP
address.
Figure 7. In the Connection dialog box, enter the IP Address for the Harvard
Hollis Library (hollis.harvard.edu).

11
Step 5 – Keyboard Mapping
Click on the Keyboard Map tab on the left side of the Configuration screen. The default is U.S.A.
Scroll down through the Keyboard Map dialog box to see the extensive list of international and
custom keyboard layouts supported. After reviewing the list of available keyboard layouts,
please return the default to U.S.A.
Administrators supporting host access power users can also use this screen to select a RUMBA
Macro to execute when the session is connected. The automacro is a string of commands that
automate the functions usually required to log onto a session. If the User ID/Password
sequence is recorded in the Macro, these elements can be either user-entered (on a prompt)
or recorded. If the password is recorded, it is stored in an encrypted format.
Figure 8. RUMBA Web-to-Host provides an extensive list of international
keyboard maps. Configure the options that you want to deploy to your users
when they use a RUMBA Web-to-Host client.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Step 6 – Session Options
The Pro Client includes the greatest number of configuration options. One powerful new
feature of RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 is Local Start. By invoking Enable Local Start, the
administrator gives users the ability to connect to a host, even when the local Web server is
not available. Find the Local Start feature under Session Options. Click on the box to the left of
the text to activate Local Start. A check mark indicates the feature is active. To maximize screen
real estate for running your host applications you may also wish to check the Run in a separate
Window option. Many customers like this feature, especially for users who run multiple host
sessions.
Figure 9. Click on Local Start under Session Options.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
13
Step 7 – Session Name
Once you have customized the session configuration to match your requirements, you must
give the session a unique name. We recommend that each session be given a descriptive
name, such as “order entry” for an order entry application. When you click to save the
configuration, the Save As dialog box is displayed with the session name showing in the file
name list box with an .html extension. In this example you would only need to type
order_entry into the session name field, the html extension will be added automatically. The
path to the session from a client Web browser would be:
http://<servername>/order_entry.html.
Figure 10. Give the session configuration file a name that would be
descriptive for users who will be accessing that host.
14
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Step 8 – Save the Configuration
When you have completed the configuration and named the session, click on the check mark
at the bottom of the screen to save all current settings and exit the Configuration Manager
session. This records your configuration selections by saving the session as an HTML file.
Note: You can save a configuration file only after all required configuration information has
been provided.
Figure 11. Save your configuration file on your
designated Web server.
After you click on the checkmark, RUMBA Web-to-Host will return you to the configuration
screen.
Congratulations, you have successfully configured a host session. Now you are ready to
connect to the host system and to publish the session configuration you created.
RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
15
Connecting to Your Host
Establishing a Host Connection
Until this point, you have been specifying the way your PC will communicate with a specific host
computer. Now, it is time to communicate with the host system via the browser on your PC.
Step 1 – Open a Browser Session
From your PC, open your browser. To establish a host connection, a live Internet connection
must be available.
Step 2 – Enter the Session Name into the Browser Address Bar
From your browser, enter the session name you just created:
http://<servername>/order_entry.html
As soon as your browser connects to the designated session, RUMBA Web-to-Host will
recognize that the Pro Client software you need for this session has not yet been loaded on
your PC. RUMBA Web-to-Host will automatically download the Pro Client code from the file
server on your hard drive. This code will be downloaded only the first time you connect to a
host session and when you update the RUMBA Web-to-Host code residing on the Web Server
via a subsequent service pack or upgrade. After the Pro Client code is installed, it will connect
automatically to the Hollis Library at Harvard.
Figure 12. The Web-to-Host Pro Client connected to the Hollis Harvard host.
Congratulations, you have a live host connection running directly from your desktop.

RUMBA Web-to-Host v4.2 Evaluator’s Guide
Deploying RUMBA Web-to-Host
to End Users
Deploying a RUMBA Web-to-Host session to end users is a simple matter of notifying the
users. You can do this through an e-mail message that instructs users to enter the URL you’ve
provided for the session directly into their browser. Just as you did in the step above, users will
open their browsers and connect to the HTML file. RUMBA Web-to-Host software will
automatically download the first time users connect to the URL. From that time forward, they
will launch their host session by typing the URL into their browser or selecting it from a
bookmark.
Deployment occurs automatically from the server, dramatically reducing the cost of
administration and simplifying software and configuration updates. In many organizations,
users need access to multiple host sessions so that they can interact with a variety of host
resources. By using multiple browser windows, users can run different host sessions
simultaneously. Administrators can easily configure unique sessions to support specific
job functions.
