Ken: Send it to me and I will have it added to the download section of our site. We are using a zillion different methods for connecting to customers over the internet, generally the client specifies the connection. I probably have every VPN client known to man on my PC, but I usually use the PCOM emulator, although I do not use CA, except where required (like ops navigator). cjg Carl J.

Carl... We don't publish or publicize Socket Sidewinder on our site, if that's your question. I don't see any reason why you couldn't host it on a FTP site. Have you tried it yet? If you can get your customers to install it, you'll be able to connect to their AS/400 in a matter of seconds without actually putting the AS/400 'on the Net'. The savings in network hardware and long distance charges easily justifies the use of Socket Sidewinder and Mocha. Your customers can use it and Mocha, but make sure they understand this is a TN5250 session only and is definitely not a replacement to CA/400. Carl... No credit, no crap is required or allowed.

Since this was a recent topic regarding 5250 to the AS/400, I thought I might respond again as well. Last time I made an 'simple offer' to the group and many of you took me up on it. I had the group email me at mailto:ken@cm-inc.com to get a copy for free. The only condition was to not involve much of my time and that certainly has been the case. What is Socket Sidewinder? We at CMI use and have our customers use Socket Sidewinder. I wrote Socket Sidewinder myself as I was dabbling with code in Visual Basic. What this program essentially does is respond and control TCP/IP connections and data streams. I listens for a connection on a configurable port and establishes a connection to a different IP address and port. Using it and Mocha TN5250, the Telnet client connects to Socket Sidewinder on an obscure port (we use a four digit number to minimize compatibility issues). This obscure port is configured in the advanced options of Mocha connection dialog boxes. Having an obscure port 'hides' the Telnet capabilities but a 'Port Sniffer' can find it. Upon connection Socket Sidewinder itself connects to the AS/400's port 23. Once connection the connections are established, Winsock data arrival are 'redirected' to the partner connection. Using Socket Sidewinder does not require any network address translation or proxy unless the PC run it requires one to connect to either the AS/400 or the Internet. We at CMI run ours on an NT server but I've been able to use it on my Windows 98 machine at home. BTW... If any of you who downloaded, installed and configured had any or no success, let me know. Feedback is a great design tool. For those of you who might want a copy as well, the 'simple offer' still stands. Ken Slaugh (707) 795-1512 x118 Chouinard & Myhre, Inc.

On your PC you need a 5250 emulator. See www.mochsoft.dk. On the 400 it really depends on how the connection to the internet is made, if your AS400 is behind a firewall, or proxy server. You need to talk to your network guys to see if the AS400 has an external IP address, or if there is a specific port on your router/firewall/proxy server that will forward telnet requests to port 23 on the AS/400. If can supply more info, I'm sure someone can help. cjg I just reread your message, and am now confused as to exactly what you are asking. Are you looking to start a 5250 session inside a web page (again mochasoft has a java client that you can load in a browser) , or use your web browser as the client (like using WSG) Carl J.

I am trying to connect to an AS400 VIA the WEB. I can be on the AS400 and ping a website like YAHOO for instance. I know how to set up client access at home to get attached to an AS400 remotely via the web. What do I need to configure on the AS400 in order to be at home using my DSL line and connect? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
