Re: What are the minimum ports needed to establish a JDBC connection to an AS/400, open a file, and retrieve records?

We're having difficulty with a customer box that's behind a firewall,
and having at least a brief window to try a JDBC connection from here
might help. So what would the minimum ports needed to establish a JDBC
connection to an AS/400, open a file, and retrieve records?

Also, can anybody think of any reason why I'd be able, to access files
from a STRSQL session on that box, but BIRT, running under Tomcat on
that same box, would not be able to get at the data?

The customer has a weird library naming convention that involves library
names like "FOO1###" and so forth. They already have weird (but not
significant) effects on Tomcat, when I have a WEBAPPS subdirectory of
the same name, but could that also be what's screwing up BIRT's access?
