The point of this whole comment. Don't shy away from .Net or Java
technologies because you may have a two server environment. Most of the
time the web server simply runs the web code, but the database still
stays on the "i". Not a bad tradeoff since a web apps code is usually a
few megs. It's all about the database !!

As an addition to the Apache discussion, .Net applications will run
under Apache on Windows, so you can avoid setting up IIS. This is cool !
This is still probably a two-server scenario of Windows + i, however we
do the same a lot of the time with JSP's as well because performance of
JSP's on iSeries have not always been up to par. Running Tomcat on a
Windows box far outweighs the native iSeries performance.

On the CGI topic, RPG-CGI smokes, but it's harder to find developers
that know RPG+Web than it is to find .Net or JSP coders.

Apache comes pre-installed on 99% of all AS400 servers in my experience.
It runs "natively" as far as I am concerned as IBM has added their own
hooks outside of the base Apache HTTP server available from
www.apache.org. Note that it simply runs under subsystem QHTTPSVR on
the same hardware that your green screen users are on (i.e. QINTER).
And the Apache server is pretty each to configure for RPG+CGI. Here is
the config I use:
Listen *:8181
DocumentRoot /www/myrxs/htdocs
ScriptAliasMatch ^/MYRXS/(.*) /qsys.lib/MYRXS.lib/$1.pgm
allow from all
order allow,deny
options +ExecCGI
The one thing I believe to be lacking is a "RPG CGI best practices"
book/course that helps you skip past all the yuck stuff that many have
to figure out for themselves (i.e. how do you access tables outside of
the library your RPG CGI is running in?). Brad Stone you listenin' ?

Your point about .Net requiring two or more servers caught my eye and
made me wince. But.. if one must use something like Apache for their
environment/language to work, isn't that using two or more servers as
