ViewPoint Pro -> I*NET won't connect

I thought I had everything configured correctly on both the DOS and SCO side; /etc/services sqlexec 1525/tcp /windows/services sqlexec 1525/tcp We're running Windoze 3.11 (WfW) w/ a current MS TCP/IP for it and WinSock. Telnet works just fine, as does FTP. I ran a sqlexecd w/ INFORMIXDIR & SQLEXEC set (and $INFORMIXDIR/bin in the path) and I can telnet into the sqlexec port (though it'll disconnect if I hit the enter key). Trouble is, when I try to start up either VPRUN or VPPRO they give up with: ______________________________________________________ |-| Informix - New Era ViewPoint Runtime |v|^| |------------------------------------------------------| | [Informix][VPRun] SQL Error (-932): Error on network | | connection, system call failed | |______________________________________________________| So, I have no idea where to go from here. I've even plugged in the raw IP address for the SCO box w/ I*NET server into setnet, though I'm still using the symbolic name for the port. What have I overlooked? -- John R.
