The Question is: hi again I previously asked the following question: Hello My question reguards having OVMS axps : - 1 alphServer 1000 5/400 - 40 alphaServer 300 4/266 all running: - OVMS v6.2-1h3 - ucx (dectcpip) v4.1 no eco patches we have a small NT network behind a MSproxy server is there a way to put these axp's behind the msproxy server and have them use a static nonroutable ip addr to talk to the MSproxy via Socks? protocol ??? The Answer is: OpenVMS TCP/IP Services does not currently support the Socks protocol. OpenVMS TCP/IP systems can access the web via Microsoft Proxy Servers. So I have been trying to figure out how I can telnet from a axp on the INTRANET to one on the internet (in general term , since this isn't a MsProxy config forum) The Answer is : In an open network, you can establish a connection using: SET HOST/TELNET [hostname] or telnet [hostname] If this fails, then you probably have your IP routing misconfigured, or you are being blocked by a firewall. To determine your current IP routing, establish a gateway via a TCP/IP Services command such as SET ROUT/GATEWAY=[gateway] or via the TCP/IP Services configuration proceedure (TCPIP$CONFIG or UCX$CONFIG, with the latter used on versions prior to V5.0). If you are being blocked by a firewall, you will need to determine what sort of firewall is present, and how to (re)configure it. If you are using a Microsoft Proxy Server as your firewall, you will need to contact your Microsoft support organization to determine how the package can be configured, and if it permits access to the open Internet from within, and (of course) how. Depending on the package, default outbound telnet connections may be available, or you may need to establish the connection to a specific port, or some other firewall-specific configuration may be required.
