Re: SLIP connection -- MIDRANGE-L

Eric,

Perhaps someone else will be able to guide you. I don't see the problem in your config (and as you mentioned, it used to work). My searching of references did not turn up anything useful. I suspect a file has been corrupted, but I cannot substantiate that with evidence. Perhaps the experts at IBM will be able to isolate it. If you get desperate you might try the following (at your own risk):

1. Save your configuration and document all of the TCP/IP configs.

2. Remove the TCP/IP option.

3. Install the TCP/IP option.

4. Reconfigure TCP/IP.

Chuck

Hi Chuck

> What is the error code of the "software problem recorded..." message, and what is the help text for this message?

The error code is CPI93B0 and there is no more information in the help text, just the ID of the problem. I try to use WRKPRB and I report the problem to IBM (through the line). They report the problem was unknow for us and tell me to send a tape with the APAR lib on it to IBM. I did it but I guess it will take a long time before I get an answer.

I know you said you are on the latest cum, was this installed recently?

The latest cum was installed this week but I got the problem before.

Has anything happened with QUSRSYS recently?

We didn't do anything on QUSRSYS since a long time.

Thanks for your help

Subject: SLIP connection

If somebody can help me it will be great :

I have an SLIP line (Win98 PC to AS400) on a AS400/model 170/OS V4R5/last cum C1100450

few days ago the OS was in V4R3 and every was working very well.

Today when I want to start the line (STRTCPPTP) I get every time the following messages in Qsysopr (translated from French to English) :

    - Starting TCP/IP point-to-point session for profile SLIPANS.
    - TCP/IP point-to-point session for profile SLIPANS ended.
    - software problem recorded for QTOCPPSM

I tried to create a new (same) line directly in V4R5 but I got the same problem.

Here is the configuration of the line :

CRTLINASC LIND(my_line) RSRCNAME(my_rsc) ONLINE(*NO) +
         INTERFACE(*RS232V24) CNN(*SWTPP) VRYWAIT(*NOWAIT) +
         AUTOCALL(*NO) BITSCHAR(8) PARITY(*NONE) STOPBITS(1) +
         DUPLEX(*FULL) ECHO(*NONE) LINESPEED(19200) MODEM(*NORMAL) +
         MODEMRATE(*FULL) SWTCNN(*DIAL) AUTOANS(*NO) +
         AUTODIAL(*YES) DIALCMD(*OTHER) SETMDMASC('*NONE') +
         CALLNBR(*NONE) INACTTMR(*NOMAX) MAXBUFFER(1500) +
         THRESHOLD(*OFF) FLOWCNTL(*HARDWARE) IDLTMR(1) +
         DSRDRPTMR(6) AUTOANSTYP(*DTR) CTSTMR(25) RMTANSTMR(60) +
         CMNRCYLMT(2 5)
