<html><div>To the best of my knowledge, IBM's Workstation Gateway does
not provide for ANY data encryption of information (including userid /
password). This puts it in the same class as Telnet in terms of
security (if you're concerned). There are several third party
packages which provide much higher levels of security and user interface
than Workstation Gateway.</div>
<br>
<div>You can solve the encryption problem in one of two ways. You
either use a product which supports an appropriate (for you) level of
encryption or you buy a firewall product which includes a client module
that encrypts traffic between your remote users & the
firewall.</div>
<br>
<div>Encrypting products would include I/NET Webulator, CST Jacada, or
LANSA for the Web for example. For that matter, you could even use
Client Access for TCP/IP in conjunction with an encrypting firewall
cleint (the AS/400 firewall doesn't do this!). At that point, it
all comes down to the user interface that you want to provide to your
users (Terminal, Web html, or web java).</div>

<div>>The AS/400 has the Workstation GATEWAY product. I have never
used it but it</div>
<div>>should provide you access to the AS/400. Also the AS/400 can now
act as a</div>
<div>>Proxy server / firewall so you can attach the AS/400 with
confidence.</div>
<div>>Telnet is problably not the choice you would want to leave
open..</div>
<div>>It's out there , you just have to find it..</div>
