We have an IBM I running V7R5 and we can get console using ACS no prob from a PC located in the machine room.

Logged into a company VM (ie remote) we can get a display session no prob .

When we try to get a console session using the same config as above we get the SST signon and enter our creds.

We get a failure message:

MSGSOCK001 - A sockets error has occurred. (An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine)

Configuring ACS console using verify feature we see lots of green check marks.

ACS ver is: 1.1.9.4

Anyone know why?
