I'd like to establish a secured Telnet connection from one Midrange box to another.

I see that there are now "PORT" and "SSL" parameters. I tried PORT(992) and SSL(*YES), and I got back:

Message . . . . : Key database file was not found. Cause . . . . . : A key database file name was either not specified or the key database file name was not found. Recovery . . . : Provide a null terminated character string which contains
the fully qualified Integrated File System (IFS) file name identifying the key database file.

(1) What's a "key database file"?
(2) I don't see that as a parameter on the TELNET command. Provide the null terminated character string *where*?
