Hi all,

I know that this has been covered, but I have LinkSys firewall appliance at home, and I am trying to get a VPN open to my iSeries running V5R3. I have just put in the LinkSys at home, replacing an older Dlink firewall. I have tried to open port 23 to allow for the iSeries Access client to talk over the VPN to my iSeries, but I never get the session to connect. The VPN (Sonicwall) says that it is connected, and when I check from the iSeries side, the firewall does report that VPN as connected. The LinkSys is not allowing, or I don't know what I'm doing, the 5250 session to connect.

Is there a port other than 23 that needs to be opened for 5250 to work? I did not change anything on the Dlink, and it connected just fine. The only difference now is the change from the Dlink to the LinkSys.

Any help will keep me from losing more hair!

Thanks
