The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Value for parm RMTSYS not a valid name but ping is successful

Asked by MsDeveloper in Programming for iSeries / AS400, AS / 400

Tags: iSeries FTP Question

I am using STRTCPIPS command and keep getting this error whether I do the command from the command line or in a clp:
Message ID . . . . . . :   CPD0078                                            
Date sent  . . . . . . :   09/09/09      Time sent  . . . . . . :   13:19:53  
Message . . . . :   Value '111.111.11' for parameter RMTSYS not a valid name.  

My IP Address is like this: 111.111.111.111.   I can ping the IP address from the iSeries command line and it is successful:
Message . . . . :   PING reply 1 from 111.111.111.111 took 9 ms. 256 bytes.   TTL 120.
 
We have upgraded out OS on the test box to V5R4.  Does this have anything to do with it?
Why would the value shown in the CPD0078 message be truncated at 10 bytes?  Does anyone out there know how I can get past this please?

More of the CPD0078 message:
Cause . . . . . :   Value '111.111.11' contains characters that are not valid
  in a name or is a single value that was specified as part of a qualifier. A
  name must begin with an alphabetic character followed by alphanumeric      
  characters, or if the value is a string of characters, it must be enclosed 
  in quotation marks.                                                        
Recovery  . . . :   Correct the name or specify the single value alone, then 
  try the command again. More information on names can be found in the CL    
  Reference manual.
