You must be on V3R7 or above for the following to be true.  So long as you
are NOT using any of the three CA/400 programs (display, printer, and file
transfer) and that require a paid license you do not need to pay IBM
anything as everything else called CA/400 is included FREE as part of
OS/400.  If you are using ODBC, shared folders/network drives, virtual
print/network printing, submit remote job, data queues, graphical access,
etc. you DO NOT need a paid license from IBM.

Claro?
