RE: Remote Site Cannot Connect

Jerry,

From a DOS prompt, can you telnet to your IP address and get a sign on

screen? Also, try configuring the session to connect to the IP address
instead of a host name.

Subject: Remote Site Cannot Connect

This is only occurring at one remote location. When they double-click the
desktop icon (iSeries Access for Windows - PC5250), they get a "PC5250
License Error: CWBCO1003 - Sockets error, function returned 10013 (with our
IP address)".



I couldn't find anything regarding this function code in the Archives,
Google, or the "Details" box of the error message.



I can take over the site's PC, which I did.



I ran Ping on the remote PC (which, by the by, is running XP Pro at SP3).
It hit our iSeries box.



I ran cwbping. All services, most notably Telnet, connected fine.



I tried configuring a new session. Same error.



Oddly enough (to me, anyway) the Data Transfer icon works fine.



Uh, I'm stumped.
