Hi,
if you just want to browse some source code you could also use RPG Next Gen Editor. Just an option.
It just needs the standard host services.
http://wiki.rpgnextgen.com/doku.php?id=problems_connecting_to_server
Listing members and viewing source uses two different host services (command service and database service). If listing members is working then viewing source members does not automatically have to work as well.
Regards
Mihael

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Minimums for simple use of RDP
I am temporarily at a customers site and would like to use RDP just to
locate and browse source members. I *was* initially successful in doing
so but lately the connection won't retrieve a source member. I can
connect to the i (270 at V5R4M0) and I have several filters in place and
I see the objects I want. But, when I double click the source member to
view the contents I get the following error:
RSEF1002 Operation failed. File system input or output error. The
details shows: Message reported from file system: Unable to establish a
connection.
The RSEF1002 seems to indicate that there is a connection issue but the
connection is obviously working since I can drill all the way down to
the source member in the file (just can't open it). The DDM server is
running and I have *ALLOBJ authority. It's weird because this was
working for the first few days I was here and now it stopped working.
The verify connection option returns a list of Products and PTF's that
need to be applied but since this is just a temporary gig, I don't want
to go to the hassle of finding the install media and then downloading
and applying PTF's (assuming that it is a PTF issue).
All I really want to do is browse the members for convenience. Is there
a short cut way of getting this to work (since it *was* working) or
should I just stick with SEU?
