Larry, I remember getting this to work with V5R1 when our machine was outside our firewall. It never worked from inside, so I've gone almost completely to the iPTF method (esp. FTP image download)- it doesn't have the limit on number of PTFs that SNDPTFORD does, even with this VPN method. Of course, it is not automatable.

Now I thought there was some setting about forwarding or something to take care of firewalls, even at V5R1. Never worked for me. Is this present in V5R2?

At any rate, this is a new box, or at least an OS upgrade, right? Is there software support? Then IBM's got to make it work.

Good luck

Vern

Has ANYONE Made this work yet? I have V5R2 on a number of client systems. Every one has AC3 and CE3 installed. Exactly ONE of those systems has connected to IBM, and that one Exactly Once and that connection was slower than dialup both in connect time and download speed across a Full T1. I have not had the time to beat the cr.., um sorry, converse with those in Rochester about this.

In V5R1 we flat gave up because they had imposed rediculous rules like "You can't have a firewall!!" DOH!

Lets say that so far I am WAY not impressed.

We are at v5r2 and trying to establish our ECS by internet connection.
Have run the wizard in iSeries Navigator.

When we go to start our profile under Originator Connection Profiles,
we get the message "VPN server not started".  Further investigation
gives us the message "A cryptographic access provider product is not
installed".

If you have had any success with this...we would appreciate your help.
