I'm sure it's sockets ... but I'm not sure of the internals of how it's
received.

At some point, that series of bytes is converted to/from a String and
this is where the problem occurs.
In either case, the platform default encoding is used, which is EBCDIC
on the iSeries and zSeries and ASCII almost everywhere else.  You can
overide this by changing these calls to
So if a iSeries based java program received text in ASCII, via a socket,
and converted it to a String  or byte array, it might not be able to
understand the contents of the data  without explicitly declaring the
character set?
