QUESTION POSED ON: 25 May 2005
How do I establish a TCP/IP connection between my custom application, which I have developed on a Win2K machine, and a mainframe application? The custom application is being developed in Java.

As in any custom TCP/IP application, you will need a server side application that listens to your incoming request (your Win2k application connects to a server either local or remote, this server actually receives requests over a socket and does something with the requests).

If your application contains a Java server side, you may try to run it directly on the mainframe, otherwise you will need to port the server side.
