Welcome aboard. :D

What else (another telnet service?) do you have executing on port #23?

Open Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services

How many services can you find with "telnet" or something close as part of the name?

If there's more than one, you probably have a clash on port #23 (the default telnet listening port).

Find a Windows Administrator and add arguments to the properties of the service:

Code: Select all

-d9 > C:\Temp\tl_dsservice.log 2>&1
Try restarting the service then inspect the log. Remove the arguments from the startup script.

dsrpcd listens on port #31538 for requests to use the dscs service. If you look in dsrpcservices file, you will find that dsapi_server is the executable for the dscs service. That one is running indicates that there is a connected client.

Have you tried starting the DataStage telnet service in debug mode as I suggested?

Have you involved your support provider? If so, what did they suggest?

Re-boot Windows so that you can be certain that port #23 is cleared. Then start the DS telnet service from Control Panel if it doesn't auto-start on re-boot.
