X.25 - AIXlinkX25 Problem

[Roomer]

I have an X.25 port that does not work?? When doing an 'x25status' the 'packet state' is 'disconnected.

I have other lines configured which work, and these are 'connected' ok.

I have checked the process list as follows;
root@hqax04 /solve >ps -ef | grep x25
root 5224 1 0 14:15:55 - 0:00 x25linkd
root 6196 1 0 14:15:55 - 0:00 x25d /dev/ciox25
root 9642 1 0 15:06:35 pts/1 0:00 ./x25drv -d ./x25dbg.log
root 18440 14324 1 15:28:01 pts/0 0:00 grep x25

root@hqax04 /solve >ps -ef | grep x29
root 5728 1 0 14:16:01 - 0:00 /usr/lib/drivers/pse/x29d
root 18444 14324 2 15:28:34 pts/0 0:00 grep x29

Am I missing anything obvious? Anything I can try to get the port active?

Thanks,

We have a very similar config, including solve, and if we lose connection we run a script to restart the x25 connections. I wrote it from F6ing the smitty x25 entries and building a wrap around, but it looks like you've already run a restart. Is it possible that the line is down, can you check with the providers ? I'm not sure how you are configured but we connect through a modem using x21 cables, so can you power cycle the modem ? The only other obvious thing that there are two ports on the Multi Protocol adapter we use. If yours is similar could you be configuring the wrong one ?

andy61..

thanks for your reply. I have had the line checked by the comms co - there appears to be no line faults that are visible (mind you this is a brand new line and has never been used before!).
I have configured port 0 on the card.... - I did have to stop and check them when configuring just in case I got them mixed up..!
