RE: Net.Data

Net.Data is a serious resource hog.  You would get better performance by
writing a CGI-RPG program at the least.  It isn't that difficult and you can
put any kind of security logic in it you want.  In regards to e-commerce...
what exactly are you talking about?  If you are talking about shopping
carts, catalogs and taking credit cards over the internet it won't work.
You will need to get Websphere Professional Suite for that...
