RE: AS/400 Windows XP Pro

That's great if you have CAE on all machines. We do not.
Also if you can get the network guy to set up DNS server would also be nice.
I do not have that luxury either. We had no other way to connect PC's to 400
for emulation other than HOST file or IP.

I have to really disagree with that.

I have a name for the as/400 on my dns server and all CAE installs reference
the DNS name and not the IP address.

For anything, you shuold always use a DNS name and not an IP address.

Also, as a general rule, HOSTS files are bad (and setting up a DNS server is
very negligible)

I assume he is referign to network browsing via Netserver.  Are all
computers setup to view the same workgroup?
