Re: Grumble...

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It certainly is not because OS400 can't do this, I'm working
on a 10. network, at v4r4, talking to several local nt's (which crash
regularly) and talking to several web addresses. This
is one of many sites I have worked on that can do this. I will say that of
the 2 that had Netopia routers, they both were
problems to get going (and I'm not the one who did the router work). I do
firmly beleive this is a problem only within your
network (which makes it no easier to deal with). I'm still trying to track
the guy who did the Netopia work for you to talk to.
I was on one of the Netopia sites last nite, no problem.

> Hmmm... have you been reading my posts about including the AS/400 on a 10.
network?  If so, perhaps you may be able to understand my reticence to tag
the AS/400 with the rating of "excellent" as a web server.  Every other
machine on my network is perfectly happy as a 10. address, but my AS/400
refuses to speak to the outside world.

space, I will be happy to rescind my slightly negative bias here.  But it's
the small things like this particular little anomaly that give the AS/400 a
black eye in the non-midrange community.  I mean, seriously, I built a Linux
machine from scratch with my own hands and for less than a grand, and it
runs TCP/IP better than my AS/400.
