RE: Grumble...

["Joe Pluta" <joepluta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a quick followup and thank you to all those who've offered suggestions.
As you know, I was up until the wee hours with this one, and there have been
no good answers, but a couple of nice people have offered to help.  I'm
leaving this one be tonight so I can get some rest, but I promise I'll be
playing with it tomorrow.

Just for giggles, I tried adding a *DFTROUTE specifying the realworld
address of my router.  CFGTCP wouldn't let me do that because it wasn't in
my subnet.  So I got sneaky, and added another TCP interface, identifying my
AS/400 as 216.36.82.1, with a mask of 255.255.255.0.  I added the *DFTROUTE,
and then tried to ping the router's realworld address.  I got a message
saying no route, so I started the interface.

No luck.  Checked my sniffer, and again no traffic on the net.  The AS/400
simply refuses to send out any data for anything outside of it's subnet.
Period.

This is getting yucky.  I'll try again tomorrow.

Joe
