RE: Setting up TCPIP on new i5

THat's the same exact problem I am having right now! LOL! (except for I
_can_ connect via regular LAN but not via ops console)

I tried following Rob's suggestions on another thread for resetting the SST
password (which I did), but it still tells me my passwords don't match. As
far as I can tell the profile/password combo should be 11111111/11111111
after doing an SST password reset.

Here is the dialog window I get:

Nah, I got it working now, but it's telling my my PC and iSEries service
passwords do not match. Nice.

IPL'ing might help. You can IPL by pressing the power button on
the front of
the box. It will (probably) come up with a question mark on the
LCD - just
press the power button a second time to power down.

Have you actually ended and re-started the LAN console/Ops console
connection (not just the cone part of the connection) ? Are there
any error
codes on the front panel ? I'm gonna guess that if you IPL you just might
see one soon: A600 5008

You can search the iSeries information centre for 65+21 functions as while
the machine is IPL-ing. You may need the links.
