Re: TCP, Client Access, & ISP -Reply

[Archie Cameron <AGCAMER@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I remember the set of symptoms once.  We had some problems with cfgtcp, routing 
enable.  The entire subnet enabled by using xxx.xx.xxx.0, the odd thing was 
that GA did work while 5250 did not.

As the IP bits land.....

    I have gotten the two IP addresses to work, and everything works except CA
5250.  I have tried STRHOSTSVR *ALL, and still nothing.  I can get Graphical
Access to work, so I will stick with that for the time being.
