Re: Access to Internal AS/400-IFS via Web Browser

Chuck - check the authorities on qpwfserver *autl. This controls which users
can see an "explorer's view" of the 400 qsys.lib file system.
from the Info Center
The QPWFSERVER is an authorization list (object type *AUTL) that provides
additional access requirements for all objects in the QSYS.LIB file system
being accessed through remote clients. The authorities specified in this
authorization list apply to all objects within the QSYS.LIB file system.

The default authority to this object is PUBLIC *USE authority. The
administrator can use the EDTAUTL (Edit Authorization List) or WRKAUTL (Work
With Authorization List) commands to change the value of this authority. The
administrator can assign PUBLIC *EXCLUDE authority to the authorization list
so that the general public cannot access QSYS.LIB objects from remote
clients.
