My guess is that you are downloading from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=f41878de-2ee7-4718-8499-2ef336db3df5&displaylang=en Which is indeed the help/guidelines and not the netsh.exe command. This is better read here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725935.aspx anyway. Use the find facility from Windows shell to find the netsh command. You should make sure that you have run Windows update before hand, but this should just be available at the CMD shell unless your PATH is screwed up badly somehow. I presume that the jBASE telnet service starts correctly and so on? You don't tell us what version of Windows you are using (at least if you did it has been lost from the thread), but I would definitely check that you have configured Windows firewall and that you don't have the Windows telnet server installed. IIRC 10038 just means that the socket was not open/valid - I am not really sure that the netsh reset will do anything anyway. Jim   I think i downloaded the wrong "netsh" executable file from microsoft.com ? Can you pls send the url for the netsh windows utility from where i can dowload. I guess the netsh must be present in the system32 folder by default, don't why it's missing on my system.   Cheers Karthik   2008/12/31 Jim Idle <j...@temporal-wave.com> karthik wrote: Thanks dan for the response. I downloaded the netsh.exe from microsoft.com and ran the below mentioned command, however no luck. It does say reboot too, but I assume you did that. Have you got the Windows firewall enabled and made sure that there are no other telnet servers installed? Jim    netsh winsock reset catalog followed by a reboot should fix this. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Please read the posting guidelines at: http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE/web/Posting%20Guidelines IMPORTANT: Type T24: at the start of the subject line for questions specific to Globus/T24 To post, send email to jBASE@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe, send email to jbase-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/jBASE?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
