RE: Firewall and SSL blues

["Pete Helgren" <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is the solution:

It had nothing to do with the firewall.  It had to do with no default route.
I had failed to define one.  As soon as I added one to the iSeries
configuration, I connected with SSL.  That is why I could connect internally
but could not through the firewall.

Simple, simple, simple.

Thanks Scott,

I am using Mochasoft TN5250.

In looking at the ISA logs I get a HTTP Status Code of 155 which is telling
me that I have an invalid security certificate so that tells me (I think)
that I set up the SSL certificate wrong (I guess).  I pretty much walked
through the Certificate building process using the standard values.  I am
not using a third party certificate and, in the past, I haven't had to
install a certificate on anything but the iSeries to get Secure Telnet
working.  To my knowledge, I don't remember installing a certificate in
Mochasoft in order to connect to the iSeries.

I vaguely remember slavishly walking through the set up for a *SYSTEM
certificate and an *OBJECTSIGNING certificate but I only assigned the
*SYSTEM certificate to the Telnet application.  Maybe I missed a step?

I'll give the openssl tool a try, but what should I look for?
