Re: Linux to AS/400 from RPG

Yes, the server uses a lot of php. I will check out ODBC and see what it can
do. The other problem here is where to stick the server... Our firewall
hardware only has a client for windows so it wouldn't be as secure having to
open a port for it. But putting it inside would bring different security
issues. Symantec isnt good w/ non-windows machine :(
