RE: internet PTF service

Justin,

I don't know if it worked differently before or not. If you use the iPTF
service today, you're presented with a sign-on screen where you need to
enter the host name or IP address of an AS/400. You can't skip past this
screen, therefore you need an internet accessible 400 in order to
continue.
