Re: Stupid AS/400 web site tricks

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhui@xxxxxxx>]

Roger,
  
  Normally I gotta agree with you BUT, I went to as400.ibm.com, selected Search
this Site, entered AS/400 Telent SSL Proxy and it came up in the first five
entries.  Now I did have to know it was there to search for it.

  When I looked around the tech studio under security and TCP/IP I saw nothing.
