any update to II12227? (ports required for iseries access for windows)

I noticed that the document is for V4R4 and wondered if anyone knew of a more current version.

I ask because users were receiving errors today trying to get signon screens remotely. I had recently (last week) stopped forwarding some ports through the firewall so that PC5250 would be the only allowed function.

The document only lists 3 servers required for PC5250: Sign-on, Central, Telnet.

My firewall log showed dropped packets to port 9475, remote command. Enabling that port made the connections work again. (Though clicking OK on the error and waiting ever so patiently also worked as did using tn5250 instead of iseries access for windows.)
