I have a situation where I need to Telnet out to a mainframe using port 1023. I have a T1 for Internet Access with the following security.

workstation -> proxy -> firewall -> internet

I can access the site from the proxy server. When I attempt to access the site from a workstation, I fail to connect. There is no error message. The firewall is set to allow this to work (I can do it from the Proxy Server). The settings in the Proxy Server seem to allow it to work. But I am not sure what settings need to be set.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Make sure that you are using the Winsock client on your PC. Also make sure the appropriate permissions for port 1023 are assigned.

Alternatively, if you can arrange this with your FW admin:

wkstn -> firewall -> internet

by building an outbound tunnel (consistent with your organisation's "best practices").
