Tried both 9.0.1.2 and 9.0.1.4....using Cisco Anyconnect. When attempting to log onto the unix server using LID, I get prompted for my userID and password. I can enter this info, then nothing happens...frozen.

Works fine in Windows XP.

Any thoughts?

Do you have the telnet port open via the VPN?

Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

I first connect to the client using the Anyconnect, then I open a LID session and telnet into the UNIX server......been doing it this way for years....is there a different approach on Windows 7?

How do I know if the telnet port is open via the VPN?

Jimmy, I tried that among many other things. Still doesn't work.

Other posts have indicated that you need to install LID in XP-mode under Win7. We aren't to Win 7 yet, but just thought I'd offer what I had seen recently.
