Unix to NT database connectivity problems

Sorry, I forgot to include the error message in my previous posting I have been having trouble connecting to two of our Informix/NT 4.0 systems from our Informix/HP-UX systems after I upgraded the NT's from SP3 to either SP4 or SP5. I was able to use DBAccess and other Informix utilities from the HP's to work on the remote NT systems before the Service Pack upgrades. All other communications with the remote NT databases work properly. The error I receive from dbaccess, when I select the remote NT server is, "908: Attempt to connect to database server (ol_ntcst1) failed. Invalid Argument" Currently our two HP-UX systems have Informix 7.30 UC3 and our 4 NT systems have Informix 7.30 TC9. The other two NT systems have not experienced the same problem as the other two, one is on SP4 and the other on SP5. Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

Mark, please turn autowrap off in your mailer/newsreader and manually wrap lines. Many do not use a browser for news & mail and they just see a REALLLLLLLLY long line, even in my browser if I wanted to print your posting it will just get truncated not wrapped. Art S.
