RE: Run a program on iSeries from the web

I cannot host it on iSeries.  What it needs the iseries for is just one part of 
a larger initiative and iseries hosting of the web app is not an option.  But i 
agree it'd be easier that way.

      Use JTOpen (http://jt400.sourceforge.net/) to run your command?  Or maybe 
create a stored procedure that accepts a command and runs it on the host...  
    
    With the appserver in the DMZ, you will need to open some ports for that 
server to reach the iSeries.  It might be a little easier to manage if you host 
the application on the iSeries, and use the apache server in the DMZ to serve 
as a reverse proxy, so that you can protect your iseries from public scrutiny.
    
    I haven't done enough of this, so I hope to see other suggestions for 
this....

    What, in everyone's opinion, are some of the ootiins available to have a 
web app (browser) run a command on iSeries.
    
    The Tomcat server that front ends the web app uses java servlets and is on 
a PC outside the dmz. (i think).
