Re: Server Instances & Configuration Directives

Brad,

 

I have your book and PURCHASES IT too

 

I have done some reading and I don't think I'm that bright to get this stuff on the first round.  I'm one of those guys that learn by discussion rather than reading. 

Thanks anyway, I found the EASY400 website and everything I need is there.

That's a lot to ask.  These are covered (and fairly well I may add) in the IBM Manuals online.  (Webmaster's Guide.)  I also cover them in my book, but that's not free.  :)

 

The ones I would worry about first,

 

Map - maps incoming requests to another location

Exec - maps incoming requests and treats as a CGI call   

Pass - allows access to a particular area on the system (IFS or library)

Hello guys,

 

I was at Commons in Baltimore last year.  I got my first hands on in Java, CBI, Web Mastering and using AS/400 as a WEB Server.

I have been trying to configure my AS/400 as a web server. I am also trying to understand the configuration of SERVER INSTANCES and CONFIGURATION DIRECTIVES using the AS/400 green screen or using Internet Explorer with ADMIN server started.

I have had some success but I still have a long way to go.

 

 

Could someone explain, in details, the usage of the  following as it relates to IFS and AS/400 libraries:

 

1.    CONFIGURATION DIRECTIVES

            MAP

            PASS

            EXEC

            FAIL

            REDIRECT

            NAMETRANS

            SERVICE

            TEMPLATE

            ALWAYS WELCOME

            WELCOME

            DIRACCESS

 

2.    SERVER INSTANCES CONFIGURATION USING INTERNET EXPLORER
