Are you using an IP address to connect to or a hostname? If you’re using an IP address, check that you have a route setup to your gateway or firewall (try looking at the properties of your network connection on your PC to find this address).

GO CFGTCP, menu option 2.

Martin Gilbert.

Check the firewall rules to ensure the AS/400 has rules that apply that say it can get out to the internet (or this address) and do a traceroute (I think that’s the 400 command, maybe David will be able to chime in here…), you should be able to use command completion on the green screen or session to guide you through the syntax. The last ip listed is the last device that responded to the tracert. if you don’t see the inside or outside addresses of the firewall, it’s likely that the firewall is dropping ICMP tracert packets or that you need to specify the default route on the 4000, and could also be dropping your FTP packets.

Also, I tried to ping the IP address that I want to connect to from the AS400, but I couldn’t
