Setup iSeries Server for Internet access to web

[jmartin17]

I have a iSeries 170 running V4R5. It is on a LAN that has Internet access provided by a IP provider. I need to know how to setup its DSN Server or what ever is needed so the Internet public can access the iSeries 170 and it HTTP servers that are running.

I have run:
wrkhdwrsc *cmn
System: S105004M
Type options, press Enter.
5=Work with configuration descriptions 7=Display resource detail

Opt Resource Type Status Text
CMB01 675A Operational Combined function IOP
LIN01 2720 Operational Comm Adapter
CMN01 2720 Operational V.24 Port
LIN02 2745 Operational Comm Adapter
CMN02 2745 Operational Comm Port
CMN03 2745 Operational Comm Port
LIN03 2838 Operational LAN Adapter
CMN04 2838 Operational Ethernet Port
I ran: vrycfg cfgobj(E1) cfgtype(*lin) status(*on)
Line E1 already varied on.
wrkcfgsts cfgtype(*lin) cfgd(E1)

Type choices, press Enter.

The servers start OK but can't get to

It may be as simple as opening up the port on your router. I don't recognize what you posted so I can't help you with that other than I don't see any port information in it. Some providers block port 80 requests but it looks like your on 2001 so that shouldn't be a problem.

How is this related to Tomcat? Maybe you should post this in an AIX forum.
