Public folder sharing

From today I can't share the public folder in windows vista.
I receive a message " server RPC not available ".
RPC is active in services.
Anyone know why?

Re: Public folder sharing

That could be firewall issue. If turn off the firewall and other security
software, can you do it?

Firewall and other security turned off or turned on is the same.
I found that RPC,like others services needs, DCOM Server Process to function
properly but I don't know what to do and how to see if it DCOM
is properly installed.

Re: Public folder sharing

Correct. The RPC depends on DCOM Server Process. Is the DCOM Server Process
running?
