Repeat the above steps for each target iSeries server.
Secure Web serving
The Host On-Demand server uses the Web server to download program objects to
the browser. This information can be encrypted, but with a considerable
performance impact. Refer to the redbook AS/400 HTTP Server Performance and
Capacity Planning (SG24-5645) for more information.
The default port for secure web serving is 443. If that port is not enabled, port 80
is used. To enable secure web serving, perform the following steps:
1. From a Web browser, enter: http://<server.name>:2001 (where <server.name>
is the TCP/IP host name of your iSeries). If you are unable to connect, start
the HTTP server with the following OS/400 command:
STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(*ADMIN)
2. Enter the OS/400 user profile and password (when prompted). You must have
*ALLOBJ and *SECADM authorities to complete the remaining configuration
activities.
3. Click on IBM HTTP Server for AS/400.
4. Click on Configuration and Administration.
5. Click on Configurations.
6. Choose the CONFIG configuration from the list.
7. Click on Security Configuration.
8. For the Allow HTTP connections and Allow SSL connections selections:
v Port number (443)
v Select SSL Client authentication None.
v Select Apply.
9. Click on the AS/400 Tasks button on the lower left side of the screen.
10. Click on Digital Certificate Manager.
11. Click on System Certificates.
12. Click Work with Secure Applications.
13. Click QIBM_HTTP_SERVER_CONFIG; then click Work with System
Certificate.
14. Click Assign New Certificate.
15. End the administration HTTP server instance with the following OS/400
command:
ENDTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(DEFAULT)
16. Wait 10 seconds for the HTTP instance to shutdown.
17. Start the administration HTTP server instance with the following OS/400
command:
STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP) HTTPSVR(DEFAULT)
18. From a Web browser, enter https://<server.name>/hod/hodmain.html (where
<server.name> is the TCP/IP host name of your iSeries).
