Ad 1: Yes

Ad 2: You can either use one of the RAS-supported protocols NetBEUI, 
      SPX/IPX and TCP/IP to access your NT Server and go with SNA/DLC 
      from there. This implies using SNA Server which acts as a 
      gateway. Or you can use TCP/IP and go straight to your AS/400. 

Ad 3: Client Access can do the job as can most other third 
      party packages. It depends on your applications. If you only       
      need terminal access a TN5250 based solution would be the       
      best choice IMHO.
