They've evidently let their prescriptions lapse, Chuck.

This is a BUILD file, which is typically used to install a web application.

This is the folder where the CGI programs live.  This tells me you at least
need a HTTP server.

"webapps" is typically the location where web applications live, and implies
that you might be running WAR files, which means a web application server
like Tomcat or WebSphere.  But the other folders imply the Jetty web
application server.

This is even scarier.  This is typically a Windows DLL directory.  Nothing
here is likely to work on the AS/400.

And THIS tells me they're trying to run Active Server Pages, which means
that you need Microsoft IIS, which absolutely does not run on the iSeries.

While I'm still slightly confused as to the nature of this application, it
seems to my untrained eye that it ain't an AS/400 application.  It's my
guess that this appilication requires both ASP and servlets.  The easiest
way to do this is the Jetty web application server (an Open Source 100% Pure
Java).  Jetty can be configured to provide servlet functionality to
Microsoft IIS.  Unfortunately, it will only run on a Windows machine.

Hope this helps.
