Hi Brian
Have you considered J2EE ? I admit I am not too good on the security part. But, here goes.

You can install Tomcat on USS and deploy an application that shows a list of files hyperlinked to a file in the deployment folder in Tomcat. This file would be the HTML version and ASCII encoded. For added effect, code a link to stylesheet in the HTML so that data appears in non-proportional font. This is a very simple way of doing what you need. I had a similar requirement and I did it just this way.

If you want a more comprehensive solution, then perhaps, you should consider a servlet that uses JZOS jar files to read any mainframe dataset and writes to browser.

Regards,
Nags.

Hi all,

I have decided that it would be kind of a cool idea to be able to access
some of our software (especially the Spool Offload facility) from a secure
internet connection, but I don't want to use CICS services or DB/2 because I
can't gaurentee that they will be available at all of the sites that use my
code.  I think that my approach has to be through WebSphere, or I would need
to write my own server address space that services TCP sockets, but I can't
find documentation on the best approach for doing this.  Maybe I'm just
looking in the wrong places.  Does anyone know of any documentation on how
writing this process would best be done?

Thanks for your help.

Brian
