Other options
Are you sure that networking the two is out of the question?
1. You did not indicate the Windows version or pSeries machine type/model. AFAIK, every pSeries model built in the last 10 years or more has a built-in Ethernet adapter. And a Windows PC likely either has one or one can be bought for very little money. Depending on the type of adapters, a cross-over cable or some other very simple physical connection will get these two machines connected. If this is an option, try it first. If you need help with the software configuration of the networking, ask back here.
2. There is also the option of using SLIP/PPP link between the systems using a TTY serial port. It will be slow, but it will work. Each system likely has a free TTY port. The cable you need is called a null-modem cable, and the number of pins and gender on each cable end will vary. If you want more advice on this option, ask back again. The Windows configuration of SLIP/PPP is found here:

And the AIX configuration is found here:

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Ns_AbsoluteUrl, Ns_ParseUrl, Ns_RelativeUrl, Ns_SkipUrl - URL manipulation routines
SYNOPSIS
#include "ns.h"
int
Ns_AbsoluteUrl(Ns_DString *pds, char *url, char *baseurl)
int
Ns_ParseUrl(char *url, char **pprotocol, char **phost,
char **pport, char **ppath, char **ptail)
char *
Ns_RelativeUrl(char *url, char *location)
char *
Ns_SkipUrl(Ns_Request *request, int n)
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Ns_AbsoluteUrl(pds, url, baseurl)
Construct an URL based on baseurl but with as many parts of the incomplete url as possible. Return NS_OK or NS_ERROR.
Ns_ParseUrl(url, pprotocol, phost, pport, ppath, ptail)
Parse a URL into its component parts. Pointers to the protocol, host, port, path, and "tail" (last path element) will be set by ref-
erence in the passed-in pointers. The passed-in url will be modified.
Ns_RelativeUrl(url, location)
If the url passed in is for this server, then the initial part of the URL is stripped off. e.g., on a server whose location is
http://www.foo.com, Ns_RelativeUrl of "http://www.foo.com/hello" will return "/hello". Returns a pointer to the beginning of the
relative url in the passed-in url, or NULL if error. Will set errno on error.
Ns_SkipUrl(request, n)
Return a pointer n elements into the request's url.
