Try to remote admin from W2K MQ Explorer running MQSeries 5.2 and the target server is AIX/ MQSeries 5.2. The Server Connection has been defined as follows on AIX:
define channel(SYSTEM.ADMIN.SVRCONN) chltype(SVRCONN) trptype(TCP) mcauser(mqm)

I have checked that:
1. the qmgr is running.
2. command server is running.
3. The default qmgr in AIX is using port 1414

When I try to show the remote qmgr from explorer, get error message:
Queue manager not available for connection. Ensure that the queue manager is running. If the queue manager is running on another computer, ensure it is configured to accept remote connections(AMQ4043).

What am I missing?

thanks in advance.

It looks to me that either the listner on AIX is not started or the hostname/ip-address of the AIX is not correct in the Explorer. If you have a hostname, try using the ip-address.
You don't need to specify port 1414 in the Explorer setup because this is the default, but if you specify a port it is 'hostname(portno)' and NOT 'hostname:portno'.
Also check on the AIX that the listner is the only one for port 1414.

I have checked that: the listener is running on port 1414 for the qmgr in AIX. I try with the IP or hostname and still got the same error. The qmgr in AIX is owned by mqm. Do I need to create a mqm user with the same pw in W2k and then login as mqm in w2k?

Thanks,

Well I have 2 Suggestions

AIX_HOST_NAME shoould be the name of your host

1) Verify Listener is available from Client by doing the following:
from a command prompt telnet AIX_HOST_NAME 1414.
if you get a immediate connection failed then the listener is not working
if it hangs for awhile then the listener is active
2) Verify Client Sample App works
A) Set MQSERVER=SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN/TCP/AIX_HOST_NAME
B) Try Sample App amqsgetc SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE

If the client app fails it will supply a reason code which will be more helpful than the MQExplorer Failure gives

I noticed that you defined the mcauser as MCAUSER(mqm). I think it should be MCAUSER('mqm'). I had a similar problem and that fixed it for me! See if it works with nothing specified. The user running MQExplorer needs to belong to the mqm group. The passwd doesn't matter because it isn't used. If you need to authenticate, check out the security exit redbook!
