we are using the asna web serving solution.  it does require a p/c to
serve the internet, and the as/400 is a data base server.   

the programs are written in avr (asna visual rpg) and are compiled as a
dll.  they are called from the web pages, using asp.  the as/400 has
software on it called datagate, that serves the data to the p/c server.
