In fact, none of CA is required on the /400 in order to connect.  The /400
has everything you need, built into the O/S.  I believe that's true
whether you're connecting via TCP/IP or SNA (but with SNA, some licensing
code comes into play).  Stated another way, you can connect to any AS/400
using CA/400 via TCP/IP (whether CA exists on it or not), and I believe
you can do this via SNA also (license issues notwithstanding).
