Yes  a AS/400 can be put in the LMHOSTS file.  
Depends on which version of CA you are on.  I know it will with 3.2, but I 
can't get it to do it on CAE but there might be a way. You can access it then 
by doing a find computer.
Not sure what you mean by copy file,  IF you mean to selcet a file off the PC 
or AS/400 and paste it on the other, yes that will work.

First, what I think I know. Please correct/clarify.

A windows pc uses an LMHOSTS file to locate another pc on a remote lan?

The rcd layout of the LMHOSTS file is pc name and its ip addr ?

With the LMHOST file set, the network neighborhood of the pc will show all the 
pc's on the local lan and all the reachable remote systems in the LMHOSTS file?

A file path name in the form: "\\SystemName\directory\file.ext"  is spcfd to 
have the "CopyFile" win32 api or vb equivalent copy a file from one system to 
another?


Now my questions:

Can an as400 be spcfd as an entry in the LMHOSTS file of the windows pc?

If it is, will it show up in the network neighborhood of the pc?

Can the as400 system name be the target or source of the CopyFile run on the 
windows pc?


Thanks all,

Steve Richter
