Does this mean I can not connect to AS400 from NT using SNA because Toolbox
for Java JDBC driver only uses TCP/IP and does not support SNA?

Although I still can use two AS400s one serves as web server and another one
as data server.  If I can secure the data server using Developer Kit JDBC
driver plus SNA connection it may worth buying 2 AS400s. Considering another
approach

Use an NT as web server, use another NT as a data replication server (this
NT and AS400 sit behind the firewall). A replication software (such as
SYMBIATOR) may still cost me $10,000.
