Jim, It is absolutely possible for a host on a 10.x.x.x network to talk to a host on a 172.16.x.x network. The 2 things that might be a problem are routing and security. If there is a firewall between your AS/400 and your client, it might be happily throwing away every packet you send (note that an access list on your dsl router might be doing that). The other problem is routing, if host A can talk to router B, and host C can talk to router B, but A cannot talk to C then B is not routing the packets correctly. What I would do is try a ping and tracert from AS/400 to router, and from client to router. Then call bellsouth and have them log into the DSL router and ping your AS/400 and your client. If all of those test work then I would strongly suspect that it is something the DLS router is failing to do (either blocking with an access list or failing to route properly). If you post the routing table of the AS/400 and the client that might help. chris -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim Franz Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2005 10:21 AM To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: Re: dsl dilemna >What does the routing table look like on your dsl router? dsl router belongs to Bellsouth & I have no access to it. Is is possible for a 400 to be accessed by a user w/ a 172.16.x.x address thru a router with a 10.x.x.x address. My route on 400 cfgtcp to the 10. address. I did try adding a 172.16 address to the iSeries, and a route, but that did not solve it (and have now removed it). jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Payne" <CPayne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Midrange Systems Technical Discussion" <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2005 10:07 AM Subject: RE: dsl dilemna > 2 things, the first might just be nitpick, but 172.x.x.x is not all > valid private address it needs to be 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255. > from your description of what is going on is sounds like a routing > problem on your dsl router.
