RE: Wierd CA Printer problem

Larry,

I had the same problems a couple of weeks ago.  A PTF and IBM "call program"
fixes the problem.  Once you create the printer session, if you delete, you
can't reuse the name until after an IPL.

                Has anyone seen this:

                 CA V3R2M0 with previous to current fixpack connecting to
V4R2 of
                OS/400.  All connections are TCP/IP on ethernet.  Over
thirty stations
                setup up with multiple sessions and printers. Everything
works except
                ONE printer.  Start the session and you see the gray printer
control
                box appear for about 2 seconds and quits.  Device on AS/400
is vary on
                pending.  Tried varyoff-same, tried deleting it-it will not
come back.
                Tried a new CA session-same. Changed printer name in
original
                session-it creates and works fine!  Renamed this newly
created device
                to desired name-fails again!  NOTHING in QSYSOPR, DSPLOG,
QSYSMSG,
                WRKPRB and no writer joblog is created.  Attempting to view
NETSTAT
                *CNN during the startup shows no additional sockets being
created, or
                they are gone before I can see them.

                 I truly suspect an IPL or possibly a shutdown/restart of
TCP/IP on
                the 400 will solve this but howcum?
