TCP, Client Access, & ISP

[Pete Massiello <pmassiello@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You know the old saying leave well enough alone, and if its not broke
don't fix it.....well I didnt.

I had my PC that I did my email on, connected to my ISP via a modem
using Netscape for my email.  The PC had a twinax connection to the
As/400 for downloading files on occasion, as I had my good old terminal
on my desk as well.  Well I decided to get rid of my terminal to make
more room in my office, and connect my PC up to the As/400 via Ethernet
connections also using TCP/IP.

Well the AS/400 works great, I can make the IP connection, do
Operational Navigator, file transfers, but I cant get the terminal
emulation part to work.  It just sits there looking like it tries to
connect, but no signon screen ever is displayed.  Oh, I am on V3R2 of
Client access, with service pack SF50xxx applied.  Any ideas of whats
wrong.  I made sure that TCP was started (I do connect), QINTER, QCMN,
QSERVER are all up, I made sure that QAUTOVRT is set to 8, but no signon
screen.

  The next mess, is that it seems I connect to my ISP, but its like I
dont get resolved anymore with their Domain Name Server, it cant find
any Internet name or get to my email server.  Any idea what I may have
screwed up.  I checked the windows Properties for the 3COM card, and the
TCP dialup and they look correct.

        Its times like this when you have to think, was I better off not
changing things.

        Thanks in advance.
