Title: NT Server consolidation

I am interested in knowing what an nt server cannot do when it is run on the iseries that it can do when it is run on a pc.

I assume printing is done to ip attached printers.

what about writing to a cd rom or laser disk?

or attaching modems so that remote tech support of the nt appl can dial in and diagnose a problem?

also, while I am asking, is there a WrkNtSvr cmd that allows the iseries user to see all the nt servers on the system, provides options for booting the server, shows all the processes running on it ?

thanks,

Steve Richter

Phil,

Virus are OS and application based, as opposed hardware based. Therefore you should run virus protection software on NT servers running on an AS/400, just as you would any other NT server.
