Unable to open multiple clients concurrently

[roblew]

Hi all,

I'm encountering an error when attempting to open multiple clients concurrently (i.e. Designer, Director, Administrator). I am able to login to each of them individually. I get the same error whether I double click the program shortcut or use the single sign on functionality from within either Designer/Director to open the other tool. The error is consistent (happens every single time we try). So, for now we can only login to one of the clients at a time.

The error encountered is:

We have LDAP configured, and the only "non-standard" configuration for our environment is specifying the Listener port on the client via the ../ASBNode/conf/proxy.xml file (per IBM's instructions). This was done because we are required to run a Windows firewall on our clients, but we've specified a particular port for DataStage client to use. I'm not sure this has anything to do with the problem described above, since the error occurs with or without the client firewall turned on.

Anyone have any thoughts to why we're having this issue? I'm wondering, "What is the ORB?"...

Thanks in advance,
Rob
