Did it again !!!  The VM listserv is displaying my paste incorrectly.
The last 2 PORT statements are commented out.

Don't know why my Redbook PDF copy/paste did not display the 9999 port
correctly! Here is the correct display:

9999 TCP SSLSERV SECURE EHCERT ; SSL SERVER - ADMINISTRATION ; 9999 TCP
SSLSERV ; SSL SERVER - ADMINISTRATION ; 520 UDP MPROUTE NOAUTOLOG ;
Multiple Protocol Routing Server

Hey Alan,

Please keep in mind, I am a LINUX newbie. This SSL server is my first
and only Linux implementation.

I got the PORT 9999 setup from the IBM Redbook - SSL Server
Implementation for z/VM 5.2 . 

Copied from PDF Redbook :

Example 4-1 PROFILE TCPIP example
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------
; Reserve ports for specific server machines. Port values used are ;
those defined in RFC 1060, "Assigned Numbers"
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------
; Note that the MPROUTE and RouteD servers cannot be concurrently used ;
with the same TCP/IP stack server.
; ----------------------------------------------------------------------
PORT
20 TCP FTPSERVE NOAUTOLOG ; FTP Server
21 TCP FTPSERVE ; FTP Server
23 TCP INTCLIEN SECURE EHCERT ; TELNET Server ; 23 TCP INTCLIEN ; TELNET
Server
25 TCP SMTP ; SMTP Server
53 TCP NAMESRV ; Domain Name Server
53 UDP NAMESRV ; Domain Name Server
; 67 UDP BOOTPD ; BootP Server
; 67 UDP DHCPD ; DHCP Server
69 UDP TFTPD ; TFTPD (Trivial FTP) Server
81 TCP PERFSVM NOAUTOLOG ; FCON/ESA INTERNET SERVER
111 TCP PORTMAP ; Portmap Server
111 UDP PORTMAP ; Portmap Server
143 TCP IMAP ; IMAP Server
161 UDP SNMPD ; SNMP Agent
162 UDP SNMPQE ; SNMPQE Agent
512 TCP REXECD ; REXECD Server (REXEC)
514 TCP REXECD ; REXECD Server (RSH)
515 TCP LPSERVE ; LP Server
9999 TCP SSLSERV SECURE EHCERT ; SSL SERVER - ADMINISTRATION ; 9999 TCP
SSLSERV ; SSL SERVER - ADMINISTRATION ; 520 UDP MPROUTE NOAUTOLOG ;
Multiple Protocol Routing Server 

Thinking PORT 9999 may be the problem, I already tried changing PORT
9999 back to BASE statement with OBEYFILE, but had no luck. All my
SSLADMIN command seem to work, although a little slower response than I
remember before fateful IPL. 

As far as an emulator trace. I may need some help on how to do that.

Thanks, Tim

This is incorrect.  The SECURE option goes on the PORT entries for the
ports you want to protect.  It does not go on port 9999 (the SSLADMIN
command connection).

You mentioned that you are getting a failure on secure telnet.

1.  Do you have the SECURE option specified for the port you are using
for secure telnet?  (Assuming an old-school secure telnet emulator.)

2.  Can you successfully issue SSLADMIN commands?

3.  Is the DTCPARMS entry for SSLSERV correct?  If you had previously
manually started the SSL server with different start-up parameters,
those are no longer in effect.

4.  Have you looked at an emulator trace to see what it's doing?
