Others have mentioned Sockets for TCP/IP and that they can be tricky. Now,
I've not used them myself, but I understand that Java has classes that
simplify the use of Sockets greatly.

Also, with the ability to use C functions in ILE RPG, you can directly call
the AS/400 Sockets APIs in RPG. Jon Paris gave (gives) a presentation on
AS/400 "free stuff", which covers this kind of thing. Email him at
<mailto://paris@ca.ibm.com> , maybe he can give you more info.
