This may be of some interest.  Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking
for, but I found it at:
http://www.as400.ibm.com/tstudio/http/product/brochure.htm

"SOCKS support and SSL tunneling - If your environment has a SOCKS - based
firewall for access to the Internet, HTTP Server for AS/400 can be used in a
proxy server role to access destinations outside the firewall. Client
connections which use SSL are "tunneled" through the proxy server,
eliminating the need to decrypt and re-encrypt the data at the proxy."
