Re: Connecting CA Express via Internet to AS/400

["Peter Dow" <pcdow@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gary,

With CAE there is no central "connections" application; each application has
its own configuration where you specify the system name. For example, in the
PC5250 emulator program, there is a Communication menu. That has a submenu
of Configure. On the Configure window, there is a System name at the top.
That's where you specify the static domain name.
