Is the telnet port blocked by a network acl?

Charles,

I will check, but it actually connects to the machine, and just sits
there with that message on the bottom of the box saying it's connected
waiting on port 23 (or something like that). Also, I can connect to this
machine with Operations Navigator, I am just not getting a display screen.

Thanks

Pete

Pete,

What's the "Verify Connection" from Client Access show?

I was at a customer last night that had two systems. I upgraded one of

their

systems last night from a 9406-520 to a Power6 520.  The old system didn't
have client access.  I installed Client Access and the license keys on the
new system.  I started Host Servers for *SIGNON and *SRVMAP.  I started

TCP

Server *TELNET, but I still couldn't connect via Client Access.

So, I tried to connect with Client Access to their other system, and that
worked fine.  I then tried to Telnet (from my working Client Access

session)

from the working system to the new system, and that didn't work. Now, here
is where the confusion comes in.  I went to the Console (LAN CONSOLE) for
each machine, and I could telnet from one system to another, and I could
telnet on the console of the new system to itself.  So, telnet is working.

I made sure QAUTOVRT was set high enough to create virtual devices, and I
had QAUTOCFG on.  Telnet is working from above, but I can't telnet from
another system's client access session to the new system, and I can't
connect using Client Access to the new system.

The system is running V6R1 with the latest cumulative package.  I am

running

Client Access 6.1 on my pc.  Anyone seen this before?  Why would telnet

work

from the other systems Console but not from another systems client access
session?  I am not using named devices on the Client Access sessions.
