I'm not using WARP anymore - downgraded to 2.11 plus TCP/IP 2.0 - but I too had a
similar problem with a REXX script for Annex connection. I think the scripts for WARP's
IAK are taken from the full TCP/IP kit in any case. And case appears to be the issue.

Check the CaSe of the "login" and "PaSSword" prompts from the Annex Server and
how they match with the script. I found that the script used "Login:" and "Password:"
while the Annex Server was issuing all lower case. Guess what? Changing the "L" to
a "l" and the "P" to a "p" in the script did the business.
