LongReach uses port 6563 which the customer has monitored and states "We have been checking port 6563 on the iSeries and have not seen any t raffic on that port."

java.net.BindException: The socket name is already in use.

This error occurs because another Socket Server listener is using the same port.

The ports reserved for LONGREACH are:

6560 JSM
6561 Studio/COnsole
6562
6563 HTTP
6564 HTTPS

A default install, normally uses 6560, 6561 and 6563.
