| | RPC Server is unavailable I've suddenly encountered network sharing problems I can't seem to get past. I get an error when trying to share files: The RPC Server is Unavailable. I've done the normal google and MS KB search and nothing I've found works. I can't think what I've done lately that would have an effect on this. I've even shut down the firewall which has done no good. This is something that happened only recently If anyone has any ideas, I'm willing to try it. Thanks Paul |

| | Re: RPC Server is unavailable Yes, I can ping by both IP and by name which I had tried first and found very odd. Thanks for the link. I'll see if it helps me any. Paul "Robert L.
