If you mean Websphere Application Server, it is IBM's J2EE application
server.
Out of the box you can't use Websphere as a DNS server or a DHCP server,
but you can use it as a Web server. Technically I think you could write
your own DNS server code and or DHCP server code in Java and run it
under Websphere.
Think of Websphere application Server as a CICS (or IMS or IDMS-DC) for
Java. You could write DNS server code or DHCP server code and run it
under CICS if you wanted to.
I have not heard of iServices, can you point me to a link.
Can someone tell me why I never saw the post below? I get
the feeling I have some setting such that I'm missing
some of the posts on ibm-main.
Kind regards,

1) Can someone give me a one or two sentence explanation of IBM
Websphere?
Can you define web servers, DNS servers, DHCP, etc. using
Websphere and what is the iServices...I get the impression that
defining web servers, DNS servers, etc. is done with iServices and not
Websphere.
Thanks for the time to explain full use of the box.
