Re: Windows XP

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

have not run XP myself yet, but I posted this question a month ago, so the
archives will have a few responses. All were ok for the telnet portion of
CA.
Your problem, I think, will be that you are at V4R4, and the newer Express
is not supported. IBM states (in the apar listed below) that the old Express
will not be tested with XP. Some previous answers said they got this to work
with no problems.

btw-keyed "client access xp support" into ibm.com search and got real close
Client Access Home Page
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/clientaccess/
even closer is
Client Access Info Apars Page
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/clientaccess/caiixe1.htm
 and look for the doc "CLIENT ACCESS COMPATIBILITY WITH MICROSOFT WINDOWS
XP" apar II12900.
