Re: Cannot connect from windows client to IDS 10 with sdk 2.9 on Linux

Can you ping to "kylie" from Windows system ? if not, try using IP address of kylie What's the INFORMIXSQLHOSTS entry on Windows system ? make sure you are connecting to 'pic_ids1'.

We just cannot connect via tcp from clients on our LAN. We HAVE set up INFORMIX SE on other machines in the past and had no problem. Now we are stumped. On past machines we have run SE and are used to seeing the sqlexecd demon, but how do we see if the IDS tcp service/demon/whatever is even running. What could be wrong? IDS (shared memory) is running, DBaccess is OK - it is just the tcp connectivity we are having a problem with. When we test with ilogin it just hangs and if we wait a hundred years we get a -908. Any help would be much appreciated.
