Not necessarily,.. You could have a socket application on the NT platform which receives multiple "Types" of requests from other NT applications to request AS/400 info via sockets.
E.g.
Types
- OD could be Order Detail information
- OH could be Order Header/History information
- CS could be Customer information.
These requests would be handled by the AS/400 sockets application and passed to an incoming data queue, then dependant upon the type, perform/spawn the appropriate process. This process could then pass retrieved information to an outgoing data queue which is monitored by your AS/400 socket application to send it back to the NT socket application.
This is very similar to what you can do with the MQSeries product as well as other 3rd party products like ROI TCP Sockets.

Subject: Socket Question
Help please. I am reading the Sorcerer's guide to RPG IV, and have uploaded
the code for sockets. Hurray ! it works ! Now translate into real world.
We have VBScript .asp pages running on an NT web server. They connect using
ODBC and are very slow. We would like to use the socket concept because it
would put the processing back onto the AS/400 and only have the serving on
NT.
My question is: I have several logicals set up for the inquiry programs from
the web, but they all will request data from several different files over
the course of one page. Do I need a different socket server program for each
file?
If there is another book that explains this, please direct me.
Another programmer is figuring out how to connect using sockets with VB. If
anyone has any book links on this subject, we would appreciate it.
Thanks,
