I have 20 servers across the province. I had access remotely to all server via rconsole. 15 of the servers are running 4.1 novell and have recently changed 5 of the 20 servers to nw5. I have an ip tunnel giving me access.<br><br>I can no longer connect to any of the servers using rconsole (spx). The rspx and remote are loaded on all servers. I can however gain access for approxiametly 3 minutes if someone types reset router on the server console, after the 3 minutes the server kicks all available servers out.<br><br>Any ideas.
