This suggests that the Gem has started so it should have created a log file
as well. That would be the next place to look.

Yes to all of those questions

I’m doing an RPC login.

For starters, here’s a sample of netldi in debug mode:

Summary of netldi parameters:

   The host name is "phatboy".

   GEMSTONE is: "C:\GemStone61".

   System password authorization is permitted.

   Clients are not authenticated.

   Process creation is permitted through user's HOME directory.

   Pool of ports is "7001:7006".

   Created processes belong to the account named "SYSTEM".

   The default directory for log files is 'C:\users\default\'.

Good work verifying that the initial connection from the GCI client to the
NetLDI is working. Reading the error message more closely I see that the
problem claims to be connecting to the stone. Are you doing a linked login
or an RPC login? I think it will be much more difficult to do a linked login
from outside a firewall. Can you start the NetLDI in debug mode (/d)? Can
you track down the various log files? Is there a gemnetobject log file?

Proof that 10088 is configured correctly, I just closed that port in the
firewall and the error message is different:

Hi James,

I should have mentioned that port 10088 is already configured and
functional, and the firewall already lets it through.

There is something missing and I don’t know what, but this is extremely
frustrating.

Here’s where I am:

-netldi61 10088/tcp is configured in the services file

-port 10088 is open in the firewall

-the netldi service was created with a port range (I now changed it to
7001:7006)

-ports 7001 to 7006 are also open in the firewall

When I connect using the LAN ip address, it works, but when I try using the
public WAN address,  I always get an error message, and the port is always
outside the 7001 to 7006 range.
