Jerry,
From a DOS prompt, can you telnet to your IP address and get a sign on
screen? Also, try configuring the session to connect to the IP address instead of a host name.

Subject: Remote Site Cannot Connect
This is only occurring at one remote location. When they double-click the desktop icon (iSeries Access for Windows - PC5250), they get a "PC5250 License Error: CWBCO1003 - Sockets error, function returned 10013 (with our IP address)".
I couldn't find anything regarding this function code in the Archives, Google, or the "Details" box of the error message.
I can take over the site's PC, which I did.
I ran Ping on the remote PC (which, by the by, is running XP Pro at SP3).
It hit our iSeries box.
I ran cwbping. All services, most notably Telnet, connected fine.
I tried configuring a new session. Same error.
Oddly enough (to me, anyway) the Data Transfer icon works fine.
Uh, I'm stumped.
