Double check your schema file. It looks like field3 is named twice, then after that 3 fields are not named.

4. Check with your network team about working some magic. They may be able to setup an encrypted IP tunnel if given the source and target IP addresses and port numbers. It would encrypt packets during transport and decrypt packets as they reach your DataStage server.
