Jeff,

What jar files did they give you? There are several open packages that

vendors use as a base for their proprietary packages. How do you set
up these transfers? Cobbling those open packages together is not too
hard so the vendor should really be differentiating themselves by
helping
you set this up.

Little chance of that I'm afraid as this vendor is not at all
conversant
with AS/400.

I'd say call the vendor and let them figure it out.

We have a java application from a vendor not at all familiar with the
AS/400.  What they have given us is a CD with a whole bunch of jar
files
they say to put in our jre/lib/ext directory, and files there to be
copied
into the appropriate jre/lib/security folder.

Finally, there is a batch file that calls the java command with the
appropriate classpath and run parameters.  They say this will have to
be
rewritten as a start script for "your appropriate O/S".

This application is ultimately to transfer encrypted files over https.
I
don't even see what's going to start the instance of http they'll
need,
unless that's what they mean by a start script (which I have no real
experience with).

I can see that the batch files does some sort of checking for the
default
version of Java - this app needs 1.3, which we have installed, but I'm
not
sure if it's the default (or if making it the default will impact
other
applications).

Can anyone help translate this?
