RE: PC to iSeries File Transfer and Program Call

That's what I'm thinking Don. I already have the rexec server running on
the AS/400, I'm doing a lot of IFS work to a different iSeries in  the
environment so I know that's working well.

That's the question - what changed? No changes to firewall, application
program, no Windows XP SP2...it's crazy. It's also very visible, so I
need to come up with a solution.
