RE: [U2] [UD] Unexpected telnet/SSH error
Chris and Bill - thanks for the notes but I'm telling ya I'm not using default ports, not connecting to port 22, and not connecting to an unused socket. I have Unidata SSH set to port 21023 and I can see it running. Telnet to 21023 causes a dialog to display on the server desktop. Bill, you're right that there should be a connection failed message with sockets rejecting connections from clients that are using the wrong protocol. I suspect UD might be trying to do that but it's failing and throwing an exception. That's the bug. Now, if you actually are running SSH on your port 22 then you're not seeing the same thing I am.

RE: [U2] [UD] Unexpected telnet/SSH error
Hi Tony, Would this be a UniData PE problem, or would it be a problem with some other (unrelated) software listening on port 22 ?
