No, I used the "search the Web" button, not the search IBM site, at
source400. Curiously, the other day that search turned up what I was looking
for quickly. Tonight, it does not.  Search400 turned it up the other day and
does this evening too.

Every more curiously, this afternoon, searching www.as400.ibm.com for
[as/400 telnet ssl proxy] did not return any hits. This evening it does. The
other day it did. Did it take the proxy server site take the afternoon off?!

You know, here's why all the warnings about the end of the world coming when
the computers don't work when Y2K gets here is really all garbage. They
don't work now! Let alone next January!
