Re: Connect to remote system DRDA port

Thanks Dan.
The telent did fail.
The customer does indeed have the i on a private network but is using a
public ip address.

Now that I know what the issue is, I can look for a solution.

My thanks to all who responded.

Jeff,

You say there's no firewall between you and the system, but something is
definitly blocking port 446 on that i.

Port 446 is often blocked in the router that connects a private network to
the public internet as it is a common target for DOS attacks. It may be
blocked by the internet service provider.

If you have XP on your PC, try running telnet from a command line as
follows:

telnet 124.xxx.xxx.xxx 446

It'll either connect or it won't.

I have tried deleting the connection in RDP and creating it again with the
same results.
When I create the connection in iAccess and use the Verify Connection
function, it fails on the DRDA server connection.

As I said, I am not connecting between i systems, only using RDP, iAccess
Emulator and Quantum Plugin.

Everything except RPD connects just fine.
RDP errors out with required host server not started.

As I indicated in my first post, all of the host servers are started and
show as listening in Netstat.

Have you tried deleting the remote system connection and recreating it?

Yes.
I have no problem connecting from my pc with anything other than RDP
which appears to need the DRDA port.

I am not attempting to connect from another i system.

Ok. One more thing to check...

Is there a host table entry for the i in question (CFGTCP opt 10)?

I can connect from my PC using the Quantum Plugin for RDP with no
problems.
The only problem I have is that since (for whatever reason) Verify
Connection say the it timed out trying to connect to the DRDA server
and since it does not see the DRDA server, RDP will not let me
access the system.

Other systems at different clients.
Some at V5R4, Some at V6R1, Some at V7R1.

Problem is at this specific client only.

All,
I have a remote IBM i system that I connect to via Client
Access
5250
emulation.
There is no VPN or firewall on the remote system.

All Host Servers are started at the client.
NETSTAT shows:

In i Nav, verify connection, I receive the following error:
CWBCO1022 - Remote Port 446 will be used
CWBCO1003 - Sockets error, function connect() returned
10060
CWBCO1048 - A timeout occured attemtpting to connect to
the
iseries.

The remote site is running R7.1.
DRDA server (port 446) is active on the remote site.

Why can I not connect?
There is no firewall and no vpn.

I use Client Access (whatever the latest nom du jur is) to
connect
directly
to the client.
I am using a public IP address: 124.xxx.xxx.xxx to connect.

I can transfer files from the remote system to my PC using
client
access
file transfer.

I want to be able to use RDP at the remote site, but need
the DRDA
server
connection.

Thanks,
