We currently have a socket connected to a Unix box via intranet TCP/IP address. This socket works fine. Never more than minor problems. We are now trying to use an identical socket to connect to vendor over the internet via a frame relay. This socket receives a cpe3425 error message(Connection refused). We think its the vendors problem. They say it is our problem. Does anyone know of anything we should look for? Any help is greatly appreciated.

ILE Socket Problem
connection refused is almost always when the other server will not listen on your port. 1. Can you ping the remote host ? 2. If so, Can you telnet to the remote location/port (telnet in the as400 has a parameter of port) If you can ping but can't telnet (most likely) ask the other side to netstat in his machine and see if his proccess listens on the specified port. If he listens yet you cant talk
this is probably a firewall blocking the requested port. HTH

Run a com. trace and find out where the fin is coming from. If it's coming from the other side ask them why.Comment
