The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

I have this case opened with IBM. There are certain clients attaching to the system where it starts 10,000+ port 23 (telnet) connections to our system. All using the same 1-3 workstation id's. Totally blows our activity level out of the water and is quite an effective denial of service attack.
-- Some TCP connections do not spawn "jobs". Therefore we'll use a different service.
select local_port, remote_address, count(*) as nbrconnections
from gdihq.qsys2.NS_INFO
where local_port = 23
group by local_port, remote_address
having count(*) > 10
;
Messing with things like QAUTOCFG, QAUTOVRT has ZERO effect on stopping this.
IBM's reply has been basically put on a patch to that version of the deprecated Client Access or upgrade to iACS.
Since most of these are Windows 7 VM sessions our Windows admins are leaning towards the patch. When they are ready to upgrade to Windows 10 on the 'gold' image they'll upgrade to iACS.
