RE: Network Station Manager V2.1 and IBM ICS

Mike:

What I see missing is any mention of starting the Administrative instance of
ICS. It must be started to configure the HTTP WebServer, IBM Firewall for
AS400, or Networkstations. You can see if it is started by running:

        WRKSBSJOB QSYSWRK

If you do not having any jobs named "ADMIN", then the administrative
instance is not started. To start the administrative instance, run the
following command:

        STRTCPSVR SERVER(*HTTP)  +
          HTTPSVR(*ADMIN)

I would recommend only starting when you need it and ending it once you are
done with it. You may want lock down authority on STRTCPSVR as well.

                Ok, I'm at wit's end here.  I just started working with the
NSM V2.1 and am
                trying to use the IBM ICS as the webserver for
administration.  I cannot get it
                to work:

                I am getting a 403 - Forbidden by rule error on my browser
when I point it to
                http://<SERVERNAME>:2001/NetworkStationV2/admin

                The HTTP server is up and listening on port 2001.  Granted,
I'm no expert in
                HTTP directives but I don't think I'm doing anything
complicated here.  Most of
                the items were generated by the configuration through
Operations Navigator.  Any
                ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.

                My admin config file has the following:

                 Map   /networkstationv2/admin /QYTCV2/QYTCMAIN.PGM
                 Pass  /networkstationv2/*
/QIBM/ProdData/HTTP/Protect/NetworkStationV2/*

                My default config file has the following:

                Pass /  /QIBM/ProdData/HTTP/Public/HTTPSVR/HTML/Welcome.html
                Pass /sample/*  /QIBM/ProdData/HTTP/Public/HTTPSVR/HTML/*
                IconPath /QIBM/HTTPSVR/Icons/
                AddIcon text.gif     text  text/*
