RE: Remote Site Cannot Connect

Well, I'll check on the firewall or, rather, have the admin guy do it.

In the meantime, minor point probably, but my message doesn't say "Access
Denied." It says "Sockets error." Is that the same thing.

Hi Jerry -

Looks like it could be a PC firewall blocking the executable:

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.
