Create an ICA Connection
You can configure and run two types of ICA sessions: Citrix server connections and published
applications.
•
•
Citrix server connections allow you to connect to the Windows desktop of a
specific Citrix server; you can run any applications available on the desktop, in
any order.
Published applications are specific applications set up by an administrator for
remote users to run. When connected, you are presented with the application
itself.
Note This procedure describes the simplest way to create a connection entry.
When you follow these steps, you set the essential items you need to connect to a
Citrix server from the Windows CE device, See "Changing a Connection Entry"
for more information about how to change the other properties for a connection
entry.
Note This section provides basic introduction regarding how to create an ICA
connection for both network and dial-in. If you want to know more detail
information about ICA operation and features, please refer to the "Citrix ICA

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
7. Click Server to connect to a server or Published Application to connect to a
published application. You can click Refresh button to refresh the Citrix server on
the network, then select the server which you want to connect to.
If your CE device is not on the same network as the Citrix server which you would
like to connect to, the server name will not appear in the list (this would occur if you
are on the other side of a router, across the Internet, or using RAS to connect to a
remote network containing Citrix servers). In this case, click Server Location and go
to the next step. Otherwise, scroll through the list and select the Citrix server or
published application or type the name of the Citrix server or published application in
the edit field. Click Next.
8. The Server Location dialog box appears:
Remote Application Manager uses the information entered in the Server Location screen
to help locate available Citrix servers and published applications.
If:
•
you are on another network (for example, if you are on the other side of a
router, across the Internet, or connected by RAS), click Add to enter the
IP address or DNS name of a Citrix server on the network that contains the
Citrix server you would like to connect to. The Windows CE client uses
this server to locate the list of available Citrix servers on the network.
•
your network configuration cannot propagate UDP traffic (for example, if
your firewall restricts UDP broadcasts), please select TCP + HTTP
browser or SSL/TLS + HTTPS browser. Make sure that the list contains
the IP address or name of a Citrix server on the network that contains the
Citrix server you would like to connect to. The Windows CE client uses
this server to locate the list of available Citrix servers on the network.
Note: When you first select TCP + HTTP browser, the convention used for the default
server name is ica.domainname where domainname is your TCP/IP domain name. You
can change this to a specific server name/IP address or leave the default setting and map
the name of a server to ica.domainname. Note that TCP/IP+HTTP server location uses a
TCP connection so does not support the (Auto-Locate) function.
Click OK and then click Next.

11. The Specify an Application screen appears (this screen does not appear when
configuring a published application connection):
In the Command Line field, enter the path and name of an application to run on the server
once the logon to the Citrix server is successful. Leave this field blank to run a Windows
NT desktop on the Citrix server. Working Directory lets you associate a directory with
the application specified in the Command Line field. Enter the drive and path of the
working directory in the Working Directory field.
For example, if the application Notepad.exe is in the C:\WTSRV directory on the Citrix
server, type C:\WTSRV\Notepad.exe in the Command Line field. If you use Notepad to
work on documents in the C:\My Documents directory, type C:\My Documents in the
Working Directory field. When you log on to the Citrix server, Notepad begins. In
Notepad, if you click the File menu, the directory C:\My Documents is displayed. Click
Next to continue.

11. The Specify Logon Information screen appears:
Type a valid username, domain, and password. If you leave these fields blank, you are
prompted for your username, domain, and password when the ICA Windows CE Client
connects to the Citrix server. Click Next to continue.
12. The Select Window Options screen appears:
In the Window Colors field, you can set the number of colors used for the ICA Client
window. There is three ratio buttons, 16, 256 and Thousands. You can select one of them
and Click Next to continue.
13. The Compression, Encryption, and Sound screen appears:
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
• Click Use Printer Configuration Utility to enable printer auto configuration.
• Click Compress Data Stream to reduce the amount of data transferred between the
ICA Windows CE Client and the Citrix server hosting the session. (If your connection
is bandwidth-limited, enabling compression may increase performance. If your client
device is on a high-speed LAN, you may not need compression.)
• Click Enable Sound to enable sound support. Remote applications will be able to
play sounds on your client. From the pull-down list, select a sound presentation
quality level. High provides the greatest audio quality but should only be used when
bandwidth consumption is not a concern. Medium results in less bandwidth
consumption than when using High. Compression of sound data provides greater
bandwidth efficiency but reduces sound quality somewhat. This value is
recommended for most LAN-based connections. Low offers the most efficient use of
bandwidth but also decreases sound quality severely. This value is recommended for
low-bandwidth connections, including most modem connections.
Speed Screen - SpeedScreen latency reduction improves responsiveness over high
latency connections by providing feedback to the user in response to typed data or mouse
clicks.
Note SpeedScreen will only work if the server-side SpeedScreen feature is available has
been enabled on the Citrix server to which you are connecting.
To change SpeedScreen latency reduction settings
1. In Connection Manager dialog box, select the connection entry that you
want to change.
2. Click the Options tab.
3. In the SpeedScreen field, select the setting (On, Off or Auto) you need.
•
For slower connections (for example, if you are connecting over a
WAN or a dial-in connection), set mode to On to decrease the delay
between user input and screen display.
•
•
For faster connections (for example, if you are connecting over a
LAN), set mode to Off.
If you are not certain of the connection speed, set the mode to Auto to
turn SpeedScreen latency reduction on or off automatically depending
on the latency of the connection.
Encription Level - Encryption increases the security of your ICA connection. By
default, basic encryption is enabled on all connections. If the Citrix server you are
connecting to supports advanced encryption (e.g., SecureICA services), you can
use it to improve security.
To change the encryption settings for an ICA connection
4. In Connection Manager dialog box, select the connection entry you want
to configure.
5. In the Properties tab, click Options.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
6. Click Encryption and select the level of encryption you want to use. The
default level is Basic. Select RC5 128-bit Login Only to use encryption
only during authentication.
The Citrix server must be configured to allow the selected encryption level or
greater. For example, if the Citrix server is configured to allow RC5 56-bit
connections, the ICA client can connect with RC5 56 or 128-bit encryption.
Note To use advanced encryption, you need to install SecureICA on your Citrix
server. The Citrix server must also be configured to allow the selected
encryption level or greater.
Click Next to continue.

Serial Number
This is the serial number of your ICA Client software. This number is only necessary
when you are using the ICA Windows CE Client with a product such as WINFRAME
Host/Terminal, which requires each ICA Client to have a Citrix PC Client Pack serial
number. If a serial number is required, you must enter it exactly as it appears on the
Serial Number card. The serial number is not used when connecting to MetaFrame
servers.
Default Window Colors
In the Window Colors box, select the color depth you require. When using a PPP
connection, 16 color mode may provide better performance. If the window options
specified exceed the capabilities of the client hardware, the maximum color depth
supported by the Windows CE device are used instead.
Note: The options to select Thousands or Millions of colors are not available if
your device is not capable of high color display.

Server Location Tab
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Server location (also called server browsing) provides a method for a user at a network-
connected Citrix ICA client to view a list of all Citrix servers on the network, and a list of all
published applications.
Tip: Set a specific server address for the Citrix server that functions as the master ICA
Browser when your network configuration uses routers or gateways, or to eliminate
broadcasts on your network. Business recovery provides consistent connections to published
applications in the event of a master ICA Browser server disruption. You can define up to
three groups of Citrix servers to which you want to connect: a primary and two backups.
Each group can contain from one to five servers. When you specify a server group for your
client, the client attempts to contact all the servers within that group simultaneously, and the
first server to respond is the one to which you connect.
1. Using the pull-down list, select the browser type.
2. In the Server Group field, select the group that you want to configure. The Server
Group field lets you create lists of specific servers that you want to designate as
primary and backup servers for connecting to published applications. Use this
field to designate whether the servers entered in the Address List field belong to
your Primary, first backup (Backup 1), or second backup (Backup 2) group.
3. Click the Add button to add a server to the selected group. The Add Server
Address dialog box appears.
4. Enter the name or address of a Citrix server and click OK.
5. Add more servers as necessary and then click OK to save the changes.
Firewall Settings Tab
Configuring the ICA Client to Use a SOCKS Proxy
If you are using a SOCKS proxy server to limit access to your Citrix servers, you must
configure a SOCKS proxy server to handle connections between clients and the server. You
can place the proxy server on either side of the firewall, or in some situations, on both sides
of the firewall.
If your network is using a SOCKS proxy server, you must configure the ICA Client to
connect to Citrix servers through it. You can configure a default SOCKS proxy for all
connections or a SOCKS proxy with a specific connection entry.
To configure a default SOCKS proxy server:
1. Click on the Proxy pull-down list and select SOCKS.
2. In the Proxy address box, type in the proxy server's IP address or DNS name.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
3. In the Port box, type in the proxy servers port address if it is different than 1080
(default).
4. Click OK to save the changes.
Note: If you configure a default SOCKS proxy, you must specify at least one server
in the Server Location tab for server and published application browsing to work.
To configure a SOCKS proxy for a specific connection entry:
1. Click on the Proxy pull-down list and select SOCKS.
2. In the Proxy address box, type in the proxy server's IP address or DNS name.
3. In the Port box, type in the proxy servers port address if it is different than 1080 (default).
4. Click OK to save the changes.
To configure a SOCKS proxy for a specific ICA client connection:
1. From the "Connection Manager" window, select the ICA client connection you
want to change.
2. Click on the Edit button to bring up the "Edit Connections" window.
3. Click on the Firewall Settings tab.
4. Follow the instructions for the procedure above beginning with Step 1.
Configuring Alternate Address Translation:
If the ICA Client is outside a firewall that uses address remapping, you must configure the
ICA Client to use the alternate address returned by the master ICA Browser. This is
necessary even if you are not using a SOCKS proxy server.
Note: You must also use the ALTADDR utility to manually set the alternate address
for each Citrix server. See the Command Reference appendix of either the
MetaFrame Administrator's Guide or the WINFRAME System Guide for more
information.
To use alternate address translation for all connection entries:
1. Open the Global ICA Client Settings dialog box.
2. Click the Firewall Settings tab.

SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the Internet Standard protocol for network
management and part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. SNMP was developed by the Internet
community to monitor and manage networks. It uses a distributed architecture that consists of
managers and agents.
The SNMP agent is an SNMP application that monitors network traffic and responds to queries
from SNMP manager applications. The agent also notifies the manager when significant events
occur by sending a trap.
An SNMP manager is an SNMP application that generates queries to SNMP-agent applications
and receives traps from SNMP-agent applications.

Download Messages from Server
When you download messages, you need to create two connections: a remote connection and
a mail server connection. The remote connection connects you to your ISP or network. The
mail server connection downloads messages from your mail server to Inbox on your device.
When you select Services > Connect in Inbox, Inbox starts a remote connection using the
connection you specified when setting up the current mail service. If you are already
connected through a remote connection other than the one you specified in the mail service,
you will be asked if you want to use the current connection. If you choose not to, you will
need to disconnect from the current connection before you can check for new messages.
Email Services Menu
1. Select the Services menu and make sure that the service you want to use is
selected (the selected service has a bullet next to it).
2. Select Services > Connect or click on the Connect icon on the toolbar. The
messages on your device and mail server are synchronized: new messages are
downloaded to the device Inbox folder, messages in the device Outbox folder are
sent, and messages that have been deleted on the server are removed from the
device Inbox. Double-click a message in the message list to open it.

3. If you read a message and decide that you need the full copy, select File > Get
Full Copy while in the message window or Services > Get Full Copy while in list
view. This will also download message attachments and meeting requests if you
have those options selected in the Inbox Preferences dialog box. You can also
choose to download full copies of messages by default.
4. When finished, select Services > Connect to disconnect. If your email service is
via a dial-up connection, you also need to disconnect it by double-clicking the
icon in the status bar and selecting Disconnect.
Note: Receiving entire messages consume storage memory. The size column in the
Inbox list view displays the local size and server size of a message. Even when a message
has been downloaded fully, these numbers may differ because the size of a message can
vary between the server and the device.

General Information
After downloading messages into the "inbox" of the email client (with or without attachments),
these messages will remain stored in memory (MinIT6000 RAM) even after the client
application "Inbox" has been closed. If you have NOT power cycled the unit, the next time the
"Inbox" email client is started, these messages can be viewed from the "inbox" prior to
connecting to the Host.
If you power cycle the MinIT6000, ALL previously downloaded email messages will no longer
show up in email client inbox and must be re-downloaded from the host. This includes ANY
additional folders that you might have created from within the client. The next time you connect
to the Host, it will synchronize with the email client and re-download all email messages.

Troubleshooting
About
This document contains solutions to problems that one might encounter when installing or
operating the MinIT 6000. To connect to the host, you must know the IP Address of your
AS/400 and be on the same network as your AS/400.
1. MinIT6000 Configuration Problems
These are problems that can occur during the initial configuration.
Problem 1.1
The light on the MinIT 6000 is orange.
Solution
Push the light to turn the power on.
Problem 1.2
The MinIT 6000 is stuck in Kiosk mode, how do you get out of it?
Solution
1. Ctl Alt Up takes you back to the Terminal Properties window.
2. Double-click the Desktop Style icon.
3. Select Desktop Shell Mode.
4. Click OK (twice).
Problem 1.3
After restarting it goes to a blank screen. The light on the front is green. In the taskbar on
the lower right, there is a red X through the network symbol.
Cause
You do not have a network connection.
Solution
Check the network cables. There should be an orange light at the network connection of
the MinIT 6000. Try plugging a known good device on to the same network cable. If it
works, then you can be certain that the network cable is good and that the MinIT 6000
hardware is likely bad.
Problem 1.4
The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor.
Cause
This could happen if your IP address is wrong. You must be on the same virtual network
or have a Gateway to the AS/400.
Solution
1. Click on the Start button in the lower left and select Settings then Control Panel.
2. Double-click on the Network icon.
3. Verify your TCP/IP information by clicking on the Client IP Address button.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
• If you manually selecting an IP Address and the information is incorrect, type
in the correct IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.
• If you are using DHCP and have not obtained a valid DHCP address, Make
certain that the network DHCP Server is running.
4. If the TCP/IP information is correct, make certain that you can ping the AS/400.
• Click on the Ping IP Address button.
• Enter in the IP address of the AS/400 and click on the Ping button.
5. If you can't ping the AS/400, make certain that it is on the same network as your
MinIT6000 and that the AS/400 has TCP/IP running.
Problem 1.5
The display comes up to a gray screen but it never connects, the cursor goes to the upper
left and then it reports, “The communications link with the Host has been lost.
Cause
This could happen if you were using a space or another illegal character in the Device
Name or if the Device Name is a duplicate of another active device.
Solution
Do not use spaces, dashes, asterisks, question marks, apostrophes, and double quotation
marks in the Device Name.
1. Open the connection Manager.
2. Select the configure tab.
3. Double-click on the session that does not come up.
4. Type in a correct Device Name.
Problem 1.6
I cannot select File/Configure in my ESce session.
Cause
In ESce you must use the Connection Manager to configure and start your sessions.
Solution
1. Open the connection Manager.
2. Select the configure tab.
3. Double-click on the session that does not come up.
Problem 1.7
The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor.
Cause
This could happen if another device has the same name. If that device is inactive, and you
wish for this device to take that device’s name, then you must delete the device on the
AS/400 using WRKCFGSTS *DEV first.
Solution
Do not use spaces, asterisks, question marks, apostrophes, and double quotation marks in
the Name of Session.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
1. Open the connection Manager.
2. Select the configure tab.
3. Double-click on the session that does not come up.
4. Correct the name that is wrong or duplicated.
Problem 1.8
The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor and I have
verified that I am using a legal name with less than 9 letters and numbers.
Cause
This could happen if the IP address of the AS400 host is set wrong in the MinIT 6000.
Solution
• Verify that the MinIT 6000’s ESce - Host Configuration – IP Address setting is
correct and matches the AS/400. To find this on the AS/400, you must sign on with
QSECOFR privileges and use CFGTCP, then choose 1. Work with TCP/IP
interfaces
If you are on the same physical network, verify that the subnet mask is the same as the
AS/400’s.
• To change the setup in the MinIT 6000, start the Connection Manager, either by
double-clicking the desktop icon or using Start/Programs/Connection Manager.

2.
3.
4.
Click on the Configure tab.
Double-click on the session that you are working on.
Click on the TCP/IP tab.
Make certain that the Host Configuration – IP Address is correct.
2. Network Problems
This category of problems assumes that you have other users already using TN5250E
connections to the AS/400. If not, go to the PROBLEMS AT THE HOST section.
You are having a problem connecting to the AS/400. The first thing to do is make
certain that you can ping the AS/400 and that the AS/400 can ping your device. If you
cannot, then you have a network problem that has nothing to do with our software. We
cannot help you to troubleshoot all of your network problems, but this guide may help.
Problem 2.1
Tried to connect the MinIT 6000 and it does not connect.
When you try to ping (see page 3) it fails with a message: “10 packets transmitted, 0
packets received, 100% packet loss – child process exited abnormally”.
Cause
You may have a problem with your router(s), bridge(s), or hub(s), due to different subnet
masks or the fact that you are on a different physical network.
Action
Verify that the IP Address of the AS/400 is on the same subnet as the MinIT 6000. The
Subnet Masks must be the same. Address bits that are not 0, need to be the same. Must
be on the same physical network.

First, ping the MinIT 6000 from the AS/400:
1. Go to any command line, where it says:
Selection or command
===>
2. Type PING '###.###.###.###' (where ###.###.###.### is the IP address that you are
trying to reach, enclosed in single quotes)
3. You will get a message: "Verifying connection to host system ###.###.###.###". Put
your cursor on that message and ROLL UP (which is the Page Down key in some of
the better emulation packages).
4. If it says: " PING reply 1 from ###.###.###.### took 59 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 128",
then roll up again to check the next five. At the end it should say: "Connection
verification statistics: 5 of 5 successful (100 %)."
5. If it says "Unknown Host" or "No response from host within 1 seconds for connection
verification 1." you have a network problem that needs to be resolved.
Solution
If you can ping one way, but not the other, this is probably a router problem. If a router
table believes that a device is not on the network, it may misroute packets.
If the MinIT 6000 is at a remote site using a VPN connection to the host, make certain
that the default gateway for the AS/400 is set that of the router providing the VPN
connection.
Restart all routers and bridges.
If the IP address and subnet masks are logically on the same network, but you still cannot
ping, then there may be a physical break in the networks. If the subnet for the AS/400 is
not the same as the subnet for the MinIT 6000 Workstation, then they are on different
supernets and would need a router to connect.
Check your hubs. Try pinging other devices to see what devices you can reach, and what
the AS/400 can reach, to get a clue where the problem is. Look at the lights.
Problem 2.2
Tried to connect the MinIT 6000 and the host session is black, with no cursor. In the
taskbar on the lower right, there is an X through the network symbol.
Cause
The network connection is bad or disconnected.
Action
1. Verify that the network cable is inserted properly. There is an orange light when it is
connected properly.
2. Try swapping with a known good cable.
3. Make certain that any Hubs or Switches in the path to the Host are powered up.
4. Try another device in the TCP/IP connection.

3. Perceived 5250 Host Problems
The first problems in this category are for when there are other users who have Telnet
sessions working.
Problem 3.1
You do not know the IP Address of the AS/400.
Solution
You will need access to the AS/400's command line from another terminal device or your
system administrator to provide you with the correct IP address for the AS/400 that you
want to connect to. For those that don't know, or would like to know the AS/400
command is as follows:
1. After signing on to the AS/400 with the appropriate privileges, from the command
line type CFGTCP followed by the <enter> key.
2. On the next screen, select option Work with TCP/IP Interfaces, by typing a 1 and
then <enter>.
3. Locate the interface that you are going to connect to. (If you only see 127.0.0.1 this
means TCP/IP has not been properly configured on your AS/400. DO NOT use
127.0.0.1.
If you do so you will NEVER get a sign on from the AS/400. If TCP/IP is not configured
on your AS/400 we recommend you follow the instructions from IBM. The name of the
book is called "Getting Your AS/400 Working for You". Publication number is SC41-
5161-00. You'll find helpful information on TCP/IP in Chapter 6.) Write down the IP
address and enter that in the MinIT 6000 configuration for this session’s Host
Configuration – IP Address.
Problem 3.2
It was working. The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The MinIT 6000 host session is
black, with no cursor.
Possible Cause 3.2.1
You have lost your IP connection. You could have a cable break, hub, bridge, or router
down. This means that you are not accessing a valid IP address, or the Ethernet line is
not up or MinIT 6000 or the host configuration was changed.
Action
1. Verify physical connection. Viewing lights is the usually the quickest way to do this.
2. See if others users are working, if not check the AS400 configuration.
3. Swap devices if possible to see if the problem follows the device in question.
Possible Cause 3.2.2
Disconnecting the session when you are not at a signon screen could cause this problem.
This could also happen if you had a power outage and MinIT 6000 crashed and you had
to re-boot. The AS/400 still has your session active, although in a crashed status.
Solution
If the last device using this station address crashed, the station address may be varied off.
Ask the System Administrator to vary your device on. This may require varying off, then
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
back on. You can do this from the same MinIT 6000 if you create a new session, using
the same IP address, but a different name.
To restart the original device, on an AS/400 command line:
1. Type WRKCFGSTS *DEV oldname followed by the <enter> key.
2. Type WRKCFGSTS *DEV yourdevice and then <enter>.
3. <Tab> to oldname
4. Put the cursor on the line to the left of your device and select option 2 to vary off and
then select 1 to vary back on.
Notes:
•
If security is not a priority, then Work with System Values (WRKSYSVAL)
parameter QDEVRCYACN (Device I/O error action) can be changed to allow auto-
recovery.
•
•
The name cannot have any spaces between letters, get rid of the space.
Using the same name for the session as someone else uses. If the device that had that
name is no longer using it, the AS/400 device must be deleted.
4. 5250 Host Problems
In this category of problems, none of the TN5250E sessions are connecting including the
MinIT6000.
Problem 4.1
The AS/400 cannot ping the MinIT6000.
Possible Cause
Your AS/400 may not be at the latest PTF level.
Solution
Make certain that the AS/400 is at the latest PTF level by checking the information on the
system. You must have security officer privileges to do this.
1. From the command line, type GO LICPGM and then <enter>.
2. Select option 10 and then hit the <F11> key to see the information.
3. Contact your IBM person for assistance in verifying that your system is up to date.
Problem 4.2
Tried to connect the MinIT 6000 to the host and the terminal session is black with no
cursor.
Possible Cause 4.2.1
The AS/400 may not have the Ethernet connection enabled.
Solution
1. On the AS/400 command line, type CFGTCP followed by the <enter> key.
2. Select the option Work with TCP/IP interfaces, by typing a 1 and then <enter>.
3. Type a 9 in the option field next to the appropriate Ethernet line and hit <enter> to
start it. If it is already started, it will report: “interface not started. ###.###.###.###
interface already active”.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
4. Verify the IP address. If it is correct, verify that the AS400 Ethernet line is active.
To do so, type WRKLIND. The Ethernet line has a "Type" *ELAN. Find it and
select option 8=Work with status to verify an Active status.
Possible Cause 4.2.2
Telnet is not running because the Telnet or the Virtual Device Server may not be running.
Solution
First Verify that TELNET is set to begin when the AS/400 is powered up.
1. On the AS/400 command line, type CFGTCP followed by the <enter> key.
2. Select the option Work with TCP/IP Interfaces, by typing a 1 and then <enter> to
verify the following information.
Internet
Opt Address
Subnet
Mask
Line
Description
Line
Type
127.0.0.1
255.0.0.0
*LOOPBACK *NONE
*ELAN
192.168.xxx.xxx 255.255.255.0 ENETLINE
3. Type the F12=Cancel key to return to the previous menu.
4. Select the option Configure TCP/IP applications, by typing a 20 and then <enter>.
5. Select the option Configure TELNET by typing a 11 and then <enter>.
6. Select the option Change Telnet Attributes, by typing a 1 and then <enter> to
verify that "Autostart server" is set to *YES.
Next verify whether or not the TELNET server is currently running.
7. On the AS/400 command line, type NETSTAT and then <enter>.
8. Select the option Work with TCP/IP connection status by typing a 3 and then
<enter>.
9. Verify "telnet" has the "State" of "Listen" as shown below
Remote
Opt Address
Remote
Port
Local
Port
Idle Time
State
*

0xx:xx:xx
......
10. If "telnet" does not show up in the list of "Local Ports", type STRTCPTELN and then
<enter> on the command line to start Telnet server.
Possible Cause 4.2.3
Telnet is not running because you don't have the option to configure "Telnet" or the right
PTF's are not installed.
Solution
1. Make certain that you have all of the PTFs for TN5250E by checking out our web site
2. If Configure TELNET does not exist, then contact IBM.
Possible Cause 4.2.4
The subsystem that runs your virtual devices is inactive.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Solution
1. Assuming you know the name of the subsystem you can easily check this by typing
"WRKACTJOB" and then the <Enter> key.
2. Look for the subsystem; page down, if necessary. If you don't see it, type "STRSBS
ZZZ" (where ZZZ equals the name of your subsystem) and then the <Enter> key.
Note: To start a subsystem, the user must have job control (*JOBCTL) special authority.
Possible Cause 4.2.5
The network route is not up.
Solution
Make certain that the route(s) is/are up and running.
1. On the AS/400 command line, type CFGTCP followed by the <enter> key.
2. Select the option Work with TCP/IP Interfaces, by typing a 1 and then <enter>.
3. Hit the <F11> key to Display Interface Status.
4. If it is "Inactive", use option 9 to start it.
5. If it reads "Starting", give it about a minute or so and then hit "F5" to refresh the display.
If anything else other than "Inactive" or "Starting" appears it's time to get the AS/400
administrator involved and if he or she is already involved then it's time to call IBM, or
your AS/400 Consultant.
Possible Cause 4.2.6
The Ethernet standard is not set to *ALL or the line speed setting is not correct.
Solution
If you're connecting the AS/400 via an Ethernet line there is a parameter, which may
prevent the MinIT 6000 from ‘talking’ to the AS/400. This can be checked by:
1. On the AS/400 command line, type WRKCFGSTS *LIN followed by the <enter>
key.
2. Once you locate the line you are trying to connect to, select the option Work with
Description, by typing a 8 and then <enter>.
3. Type the 5 and then <enter> to bring up the Display.
4. Make sure that Ethernet standard is set to *ALL and that the correct line speed is
displayed.
5. The line speed can be changed by hitting the<F12> key to Cancel and then selecting
option 2.
6. If you need to change Ethernet standard you will have to type CRTLINETH and
create a new line description. For this help, consult your AS/400 administrator or
IBM. You can also try the IBM publication, "Getting Your AS/400 Working for You"
(SC41-5161-00), chapter 6.
Problem 4.3
Unable to connect the MinIT 6000 to the host and the AS/400 cannot ping the
MinIT6000. The AS/400 is at the latest PTF and CUM level and is able to ping other
devices. Also, your network administrator made sure the the IP addresses are correct.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Possible Cause 4.3.1
There is a network problem caused by the routing tables in one of the network bridges or
routers.
Solution
1. Recreate the Ethernet line. Do not override the MAC address.
2. Check the routing tables and/or reset the bridges and routers.
Possible Cause 4.3.2
One of the network devices or networked nodes is improperly configured.
Solution
1. Try to ping the AS/400 by typing on the command line PING 'x.x.x.x', where x = IP
address of your MinIT6000.
2. Assuming you that are not successful at "Pinging" the MinIT6000, try "Pinging" the
WAN side of the router. If you can PING the WAN side but not the Ethernet side of
the router, then there's probably something wrong with the configuration of the
router. If you cannot PING the network side of the router then there's probably
something wrong with the TCP/IP configuration on the AS/400. Specifically, the
route configuration or the subnet mask on the AS/400 could be wrong but it could be
something else.
3. It is recommended that you consult your AS/400 Administrator, your AS/400
Consultant or IBM. You can also try the IBM publication, "Getting Your AS/400
Working for You" (SC41-5161-00), chapter 6.
Problem 4.4
The AS/400 can ping the MinIT6000 but the session never starts. The light on the MinIT
6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor.
Possible Cause 4.4.1
The MinIT 6000 supports ‘Enhanced Telnet 5250’ or TN5250E. The main feature that
TN5250E provides is Persistent LU naming, which is where the name that you provide
when you set each MinIT 6000 session up is the one that the AS/400 sees for your
session.
Two Possible problems can occur.
1. Certain names are invalid. If another TCP/IP client uses a name it cannot be used.
2. The AS/400 will either have this enabled or not.
Solution
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
You cannot use a name that someone else is using.
Blanks are not allowed within the name.
You cannot use spaces or dashes or any other character than letters or numbers.
Case is ignored.
There is a maximum of nine characters.
Because most system-supplied objects on this system begin with Q, your names
should not start with a Q.

Possible Cause 4.4.2
Improper configuration of the subsystem used for the virtual devices.
Solution
Our product emulates different IBM terminals depending on the color and width
selection. For 132 wide configurations, the MinIT6000 emulates an IBM 3477 terminal.
For monochrome 80 wide, it emulates a 5251. For 80 wide color configuration it
emulates 3179. This means your subsystem (typically, QINTER) must allow a 3179. To
verify this:
1. On the AS/400 command line, type WRKSBSD *ALL followed by the <enter> key.
2. Locate the subsystem you're using for the virtual devices, select the option Display,
by typing a 5 and then <enter>.
3. On the next display, select the option Workstation type entries by typing a 5 and
then <Enter>.
4. On the next display, verify that you see a "Type" of "*all", or a type of "3179".
5. If so, select option Display workstation type details by typing a 5 and then
<Enter>.
6. On the next display you should see an appropriate value for the "Maximum active
jobs" parameter. You can make changes in one or both cases by typing CHGWSE
(or ADDWSE), followed by the <Enter> key, and making the appropriate changes.
Problem 4.5
Unable to connect the MinIT 6000 to the host however, the AS/400 can ping the MinIT
6000, the AS/400 is at the latest PTF and CUM level and can ping other devices. Your
Network Administrator made certain that the IP addresses are correct and you have
recreated the Ethernet line and restarted all routers.
Possible Cause
Your AS/400 is not set up for enough virtual devices.
Solution
1. On the AS/400 command line, type WRKSYSVAL followed by the <enter> key.
2. Scroll down to the "System Value" of QAUTOVRT.
3. Type a 5 in the option field to display the number of virtual devices allowed.
4. Make certain that you allow for enough.
5. Printer Problems
Common MinIT 6000 printer session errors.
Problem 5.1
When you try to start the printer it says “Device already in use” , then “The connection
request has been rejected by the host”.
Possible Cause
Had a printer already configured with that name at the AS400.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Solution
You must delete the session on the MinIT 6000 and re-create it with a different name or
delete the other printer from the AS/400.
Problem 5.2
When you try to start a printer session, it pops up with a message: “The connection
request has been rejected by the host”.
Possible Cause 5.2.1
Using Host Print Transform but the Host Print Transform Name is not valid.
Solution
The name must have the splat (asterisk) *, in front of it. You must use a manufacturer and
Model that is supported by your AS/400.
1. On your AS400, Using the CHGDEVPRT command, the printer settings should be:
Host print transform . . . . . .
*YES
Manufacturer type and model. . *SAME
2. Place the cursor on the Manufacturer type and model.. *SAME line.
3. Press F4, which will bring up the Specify Value for Parameter MFRTYPMDL.
This is where you can see your choices for Manufacturer type and model. For
example: *IBM3280, *HPII, *HP5SI, *EPDFX5000, *LEXOPTRA, *EPLQ860,
*CANLIPS3, *OKI320IBM, *NECP2200, *PAN2624EP, *XRX4235, or
*WSCSTLETTER.
4. If you want more information on what one of these choices support, you can use F1
on this screen. You do not have to find your exact model. For instance, if you have an
HP printer it is likely that any of the lower level HP selections will work, like HPII or
HPIII, because all HP printers support PCL, and the difference between them is in the
options that are supported.
5. Once you have chosen a printer to try, you must type that in on the Manufacturer
type and model field.
Possible Cause 5.2.2
Using Host Print Transform but the printer name is not valid or you are using *WSCST,
but the name or library is not valid.
Solution
• Make certain that you put an * in front of the name.
• Change the IBMWSCSTNAME to QWPDEFAULT
• Change the IBMWSCSTLIB to QGPL
