STEPS
-----------------------
The issue involves the following steps:
1. Received 2 new URL (one for Production and one for Test), and associated new passwords
2. Updated the existing (successfully-used)Transmission Protocol setup using Payment Setup Administrator.
3. Ran new IBY_FD_PAYMENT_FORMAT_TEXT requests for ACH payment batches.
4. Confirmed that the new IBY_FD_PAYMENT_FORMAT_TEXT requests fail due to the Communication error condition each time
5. Confirmed the validity of the new urls & passwords
6. Confirmed that  successful connection to the new urls is possible using telnet
