These posts were from some time ago, however I figured this solution
may be handy. My current place of employment uses medical manager,
however it is not hosted locally. We are using v9.31.02. You need to
have wy60 emulation. If you're a linux guru, you can download a nifty
wy60 emulator, namely from:
http://gutschke.com/wy60/
and run something to the effect of this:
wy60 -c telnet IP
or preferrably, if the service is supported;
wy60 -c ssh -l LOGINNAME IP
It's been ported to windows, or you can build it in cygwin. It works
out of the box, however, with minor modification, you can get the
terminal to look more cleanly centered (you'll see what I mean when you
try it). It's nothing a little c-hacking doesn't solve quickly. You
can also use tiny term (but you have to pay license fees for that...
ewww...

I would also like to add that i've noticed some controversial server
administration at my current place of employment. Not by our
employees, but from the company that is hosting Medical Manager for us.
In fact, if the administrators to not have the profiles and
permissions set up correctly on the server end, you can simply do an
ESC/ESC, CTRL-C very quickly, and you will be dropped to a command
line. NOT-SO-GOOD, let me tell you :-) They are using AIX 5.

There are a few other exploits that I am aware of that are not as
simplistic as the one listed above. I will post them eventually.

If you have questions or comments, let me know:
