RE: I am in a Holy War about webserving from a System i

["Josh Diggs" <JDiggs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would use http://pluta:2001 to set up the server.  You may need to install the relevant software and issue the command STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(*ADMIN) first.

As far as how long it takes to set up, it's tied to the complexity of your desired outcome, but here is a rough guide for someone who has done it 2 optionally 3 times in the past.

(prev attempt 1) + (prev attempt 2) [+(prev attempt 3)] / (2[+1])

Sorry, sometimes I'm more of a smart ass than I need to be.  It's just too much fun to resist.

If you really want your domain name to be reports.trevor.int then we have to talk about DNS servers with TLDs etc.  Is that something you are doing?

Now for the dumb questions.

Lets say we want our midrange machine to have a server...  let me call 
it Pluta, for discussion.  Lets say I want an intranet website of 
http://reports.trevor.int installed and running on Pluta.  

1-How long would it take a person to arrange that, saying his experience 
was having already done it two or three times?
2-Would one use Operations Navigator to do it?
