The free one closed down.  I run www.netshare400.com  and do allow 
opensource accounts for free. Just pick an API and write a service 
program for it and make it open source. Also the first month is free.
	
Also if you have a Code/400 or WDSc/WDSt (or whatever it is called) you 
might be able to use that to edit your code.

And I am sure if you ask around you could find an AS400 for your garage, 
just for hauling it away. :)
