Re: Cannot connect with Telnet client, other TCP/IP clients

CFGTCP; option 2.

You may have to stop the IP interfaces using option 1 (and very 
potentially remove all of them too)  before removing the routes.  The 
*DIRECT routes have always gone away when I delete the line 
configuration.  (copy it to source first to recover it easily)

While Larry and others are much better at networking than I, when 
configuring IP on IBM i I always get just the base IP address and route 
correct first, then start adding the other stuff that's needed for all 
the communications types, adding each one at a time to pinpoint when 
something goes wrong.
