Talk to the company that is hosing your web site on the NT server.  They 
are most likely your DNS provider to.  Ask them to add a dns entry for 
what you want to call your AS/400.  Say your domain name being hosted
is minter-weisman.com.  Call your AS/400 something that may have some
meaning in a url such as DB.

They would then add a DNS entry for DB with your IP and so if someone selected
db.minter-weisman.com it would go to your AS/400 and then the link would look
"right".  HTTP://db.minter-weisman.com/getdata

Regards,

Jim Langston
