Kinda Glad WebSphere did not sell on this Forum's MKT.place

Since I rec'd alot of inquiry, it would have been to my debt that WebSphere sealed in the back of the
book I was selling here did not ship out as there were takers a'plenty but no buyers

C:\WebSphere\AppServer\hosts\default_host\admin\web\index.html

this was the link on the ADMIN page for a d.l. of the Admin Client and it goes in a loop, to the admin page itself, not to a d.l.  So, I thoroughly tested this app in spite of the foibles with the admin failure, i.e. up againt my OS2 server Xitami, using both a loop back addr. as well as my IP addr. and others.  I could run Xitami off of a CD and get a response to a homepage with the IP as the address, while using warp4, but not however, using Apache on the installed WebSphere's server, it was oddly just a "no go"...

How could that be? [ur, or so I wondered]. Then on the server admin page [which, as I mentioned is the link
above to the local server], there is also a link to upgrade the WebS admin interface using java, et al. This is an XML Web Administration Tool using a web browser, and it too was a bogus link, also pointing to the link shown above as itself as the target, this shows up as the properties list out of the link. Why? anyone know where I could get the server XML admin tools, hobbs, or? The apache server does not work on the CD once installed -so I'm blitzed by this, if I had sold the book off with the CD I guess this blooper would have come back to bite...Yikes! Since I now have opened the shrink wrap and intsalled it on a TwindoZe machine, just to test its response against a known working server [Xitami for Windows and OS2];- thought I might be able to get off windows entirely using WebSphere/Apache as the ticket. BTW, using my Warp 4 server it was no easy chore getting TCP/IP to work with dial up to test Xitamin for OS2, now I would like to upgrade and use the WebShere ebusiness attributes but can't. Pls. Help me if you can at least point us to a place to go to d.l. something or other that would make the whole thing work right. I have no extra copies of this to give away but even if I did I wouldnt give something away that's useless and a total waste of time, much less put it on display in IBM SHOW? arghhhhh??? It seems to me that IBM did a whole lot of promo on this app and I come to find too little too late that its useless unless of course it could be ported to some open source project, which is a whole legal issue I can't deal with by myself. Touche IBM_tanks fur the memories on the Hudson tech dudes!
someday os2 will be ruled by the young and famous-at least in the open-source world!
