RE: Re[2]: Communications Manager -- MIDRANGE-L

Alison,

Backup your CM .CFG files plus the rest of them that share
the same name of the configuration that you are using.
Then go into CM Setup and step through the configuration
process again to make sure all is well there, at the end CM
will verify the config params and log any errors to a file.
This may be enough to kick start the connection or point to
something peculiar.

Is the config just a plain old 5250 emulator? or is it a
special purpose connection such as DataHub?
Did you by any chance add Rumba? or Client Access?

Also make sure that there are no odd disk problems by
booting from your utility disks and running CHKDSK /F

If you still have problems, contact me thru the .mil URL and
I will see if I can help get that fixed.

     If I'm not mistaken, Token Ring cards usually have a
"default adapter 
     address" that is supplied by the card. This value may
be overridden in 
     Communications Manager configuration. Depending on how
you are 
     connecting, the AS400 *ctld that your PC attaches to
may also need to 
     be changed to match the new adapter address.
     
     It's been YEARS since I worked with CM and OS/2. My
brain has crashed 
     a few times since then, so I may be barkin' up th'
wrong tree, so to 
     speak.
     
     Good luck.

Not much expertise with token-ring (ethernet only), however,

when one re-installs OS/2 and a new card, let the autocreate

function work on the AS/400 to build a new profile.  If it
is 
the same card, delete the profile on the AS/400 and let it
be autocreated once again.  I "futzed" with this for well
over 
a week at a client site once ... and allowing the above to 
work, it was a slam-dunk.
     
Good luck.
