Connecting i5 Express to Internet

["Rich Dotson" <richleedotson@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to connect an iSeries 515 to the internet and would like
some guidance.  This is my first try at this side of things after 20
years of programming on the midrange.    I am signed on to the i5
using the System Console attached to the T6 port.

1. I have a static IP address from my ISP.

2. I configured the ethernet line on the iSeries (defined to use the T5 port).

3. I setup the TCP/IP interfaces as follows:

Internet Address       SubNet                 Line Desc       Line Type
74.219.167.174         255.255.255.252   ETHLIN           *ELAN
127.0.0.1                  255.0.0.0              *LOOPBACK  *NONE


4. I setup the TCP/IP Routes

Destination       Mask          Next Hop             Interface
*DFTROUTE     *NONE       74.219.167.174     *NONE

5. Setup the TCP/IP host table entries

Internet address          Host Name
74.219.167.174           S1048D02
                                 DDMSONLINE
                                 DDMSONLINE.COM

127.0.0.1                    LOOPBACK
                                 LOCALHOST

6. Changed TCP/IP Domain

Host name: DDMSONLINE
Domain Name: DDMSONLINE.COM

DNS Internet address: 65.24.0.168
                                65.24.0.169

7. I plugged the i5 into the internet modem / router

8. Started TCP/IP and the TCP/IP server

When I try to PING the domain name DDMSONLINE.com it says:

Verifying connection to host system S1048D02 at address 74.219.167.174
Cannot reach remote system


Where do I go from here?

Thanks in advance...
