If I may speak for my worthy associate...

exerk means to telnet to the MQ listener port.

Code:

telnet <IPaddress> 1514

This assures that there is no network blockage such as a firewall. Your telnet session should establish without a timeout or 'connection refused' message. If you successfully connect, it will also throw a (harmless) FDC on your Unix server.

I would also try the IP address instead of the DNS name. I occasionally have trouble from MQExplorer if DNS name resolution is misbehaving in the enterprise.

Where did you get that explanation of a 4043 return code? I see this in the manual:

Quote:

AMQ4043
Queue manager not available for connection.
Severity:

10 : Warning
Response:

Ensure that the queue manager is running. If the queue manager is running on another computer, ensure it is configured to accept remote connections.

You might consider creating a svrconn channel just for this purpose. Using the default svrconn invites security trouble.

Thank you SAFraser, sometimes my answers can be a little too curt

so your clarification is much appreciated.
