AS/400 Internet Security:
Developing a Digital Certificate Infrastructure
|
Abstract:
This redbook is the first publication that shows in a complete picture
how digital certificates can be used for security on the AS/400
system.
One of the reasons why many customers should consider
using digital certificates is to secure their Internet and
intranet applications. Everybody knows that nowadays almost every
Internet application requires a user ID and password to get access
to it. And of course it is very likely that one user never gets a
single user ID for different applications, which means a user has to
remember several user IDs and passwords.
The worst case is that users start to write down their passwords,
which weakens the security policies that are in place.
The answer to get rid of many user IDs and passwords is using digital
certificates.
For applications and servers that already support
client authentication through digital certificates, there is no need
to use User IDs and passwords anymore. A single certificate issued by
a well-known Certificate Authority can serve as an identifier of an
entity for many applications.
This redbook describes what you can do with digital certificates on the
AS/400 system. It explains how to set up the various servers and clients
to use certificates. Further it provides information and sample code
of how to use AS/400 system APIs to manage and use digital certificates
in user applications.
It also gives a basic introduction to the
terms and technologies used when dealing with digital certificates
and the Secured Socket Layer protocol.

Cool Title About the AS/400 and Internet
|
Abstract:
This redbook is instrumental in the access and use of the Internet
(or your own intranet) from your AS/400. It helps you understand
how to use the functions and features available with V3R2 of OS/400
and the TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities/400, also known as
the Internet Connection for AS/400. This document can also be used
for V3R7 of OS/400 due to the functional equivalence with V3R2.
This redbook helps you get your AS/400 'plugged in' to the Internet
with a discussion of Wide Area Network (WAN), Local Area Network (LAN)
and both dial-out and dial-in SLIP connections.
We then will address some traditional TCP/IP applications like
e-mail with MIME and POP3 enhancements, Telnet, FTP with new APIs to
provide anonymous access, Gopher, and AS/400 security issues.
Then, we will detail the new 'cool' side to the AS/400 with the
World Wide Web (WWW) HTTP server as part of the Internet Connection for
AS/400. Topics such as CGI programming, access to DB2/400 data via
DB2WWW macros, and the 5250 Workstation Gateway that converts legacy
5250 applications to the language of the web (HTML) are addressed with
