Booth,
  I juuuust installed the TCP/IP evaluation version of VARPG and Code/400 
here at work.  It installed easily enough; no problems to report.  I *did* 
have some hiccups (GPF's, etc.) before I installed Service Pack 3. 
 Stability is much improved now.  Here at work, my PC does have a fixed IP 
address, but I don't *need* one.  One thing I did right away was to open 
all the DDS, CL and RPG source from the /400 and put it in the cache.  Now 
I can edit/verify on the PC without doing a STRCODE.

I'll give a report of how I like it when I've spent more time with it...
