 While you cannot see the AS400 in Network Neighborhood, 
you can still map drives and printer to the AS400.  Windows 2000 uses a 
different browse announcement than win9x/NT and cannot see the AS400.  
Thank YOU M$.  There are PTFs to update Netserver for support with 
Win2ooo.  Get the latest cume, Hipers, and TCP ptf packages installed and 
you should have visibility once again, on 4.4 that is.  I do not know about 
prior releases.

  I 
  recently upgraded all of our PCs from Windows 95/ 98s to Windows 2000 and can 
  no longer see our AS/400 in Network Neighborhood.  Does anyone know why 
  this is and how it can be fixed??  We are running 
  TCP/IP. 
    
  Thanks.

    Why do you call that risky, M$ has done the 
    very same thing since DOS 6. 
      
    
      
      Hello William,  
              I'm happy you 
      had no problems installing it.  Some of us have experienced it, and 
      finally gave up.  IBM has taken a direction that is pretty 
      risky.  They entered the PC market with products that they aren't 
      finished developing.  They expected the customers to tell them what's 
      wrong with it and what's missing, but they're missing a point there, 
      they're not asking the right questions to the right people. (see news400's 
      august article :http://www.as400network.com/resources/artarchive/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewarticle&CO_ContentID=7750). 
              The point is 
      they have put CODE/400 on the market before it was finished.  They 
      had put only the tools that everybody need.  I've heard it was 
      written in smalltalk, and that was one of the major cause why it is so 
      slow.  But they will release a new version that is supposed to be 
      faster, and more reliable.  Written in C/C++, it is supposed to be 
      the next step to a Full windoze interface for AS400 developers.  As 
      I'm writing this, there are no more CODE/400 on my workstation.  I 
      had to format my HDD to completely erase the references to the VARPG's 
      Java toolbox for as400.  Or else I have to set the classpath in each 
      execution of a Java class to avoid a "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException" 
      error. 
              All this to 
      say, don't despair, there will come a new world of drags, drops and clicks 
      for the AS400.  Will it be for good?  who knows?
