Re: TELNET IP filtering

If you can't find the source, you can remove that program from the exit point and replace it with your own. I have an RPGLE exit point program that you could adapt to your needs. I'd be happy to share it with you off-list.

Thanks, you definitely placed a good X on my treasure map.

I found TELNET Initialization followed immediately by TELNET Termination.

Looks like here we can assign a program, but not change the program.

Our program for TELNET Initialization is ZTGINIT in library KSATOOLS
Our program for TELNET Termination is nothing there.

In library KSATOOLS I found CLE program ZTGINIT & PF Telnet exit mapping

I dumped the file ... it has TELNET rules, not IP addresses.
It would have been too simple to have something I could DFU patch.

I am now on a hunt for the source code for the CLE program.
The library does not have QCLESRC, does have QCLSRC, but it aint there.

Al, more than likely you have an exit program that checks the IP addresses allowed to use TELNET. This program is called whenever a TELNET connection is requested. To find the program do a WRKREGINF
command and scroll down to QIBM_QTG_DEVINIT; do an option 8 to find the name of the program.

Where/how do we change TELNET settings?

We have AS/400 model 170 V5R1 forever thanks to BPCS extortionist

pricing.

Years ago, we had our tech support setup our system to accept TELNET

from a

consultant of our coporate owners. They are moving their offices and

need

us to change the collection of IP addresses allowed to reach our system.

I have no idea how to do that. I looked in vain on our system, in

probably

many wrong places.

Asking my boss to approve a call to tech support is like an infinite

number

of visits to the dentist, except that dentist visits tend to accomplish something.
