Hi Ashley,

The id of "MSGSOCK007" doesn't mean anything to me... I suppose you could file a PMR with IBM to find out what it means.

But, I think the relevant bit here is "Could not connect". It can't connect to the relevant ports on your IBM i.

From here, I would suggest doing a bit of investigation. Here is a list of the various ports (you don't need all of these, but you'll need server mapper, license, telnet...)
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1019667

From the PC that's failing, check each port to see if it works. If not, try testing each segment along the way and see where it fails. Probably dns, firewall, or route, etc is not right? Check each one in each segment until you find where it is not able to connect.

Good luck!

Unfortunately, it isn't even connecting the first time around. The computer
is already set to not sleep.

I am going to try applying the latest service level update and see if it
resolves the issue. This was a new install done just last month so I believe
it's up to date but will confirm.

Hi Ashley,

As I wrote Jon back a week ago on the other thread...

I found my
ACS 5250 was timing out. I opened a PMR and it turns out ACS
doesn't keep the
computer active so the computer goes to sleep and the
connection is ended.
My
issue was resolved by going into Control Panel > Power Options > Never
put the
computer to sleep.


Yours truly,

Greetings!

I have a semi-retired sales
executive that I set up with a Lenovo Windows
10
laptop and the latest
release of IBM iAccess Client Solutions (5250
terminal
session). She is
connecting through a Cisco VPN and had no issues for the
first two weeks ­
it was fast and reliable.

Last week, she got an error from iAccess
³MSGSOCK007 ­ could not connect²
and the only reference to this code was in
previous posts to this list
group. Unfortunately, that thread did not have a
solution or clue to what
this error code means. Each successive attempt to
connect (even with new
sessions with new session names) fails with the same
error code. We do not
use SSL and I have no issue connecting via other
devices using VPN and
identical session and login information.
