Re: iSeries to the Internet... almost?

I would would check what the gateway is? Most likely a firewall of some sort. 
And your
AS400 probably does not have a public address so something is going to need to 
to NAT for
it, which I would assume something is already doing that for the PC since most 
PC's do
not get public address. If the gateway is a firewall find out what the rules 
are for
getting out and then see how your AS400 fits those rules. I would also ping the 
gateway
from the PC (to see if it answers Pings) then ping from the AS400 to see if you 
get there
or not. And since your networks are so different they may not even be the same 
gateway.
They may have the PC behind a cheap router to do DHCP and NAT and maybe some 
other stuff.
And severs on another network segment.

It really would be easier if you talked to a network person there who knows 
your network.
