WebScale™
port has not been blocked by a router or firewall. You can also change the port
number by modifying the corresponding WebScale registry parameter.
Problem: WebScale remote control commands fail when the target host is specified
using its dedicated IP address.
Description: When I use the dedicated IP address of a host to specify it as a target for a
remote control command, I get no reply. On the other hand, I can specify the host by its
priority ID.
Probable cause(s) and resolution:
1. The target host probably has several dedicated IP addresses (on different
interfaces). You should use the dedicated address specified in the WebScale
Setup Dialog when issuing remote control commands.
Problem: Workstation, server and RPC services fail after installing second NIC.
Description: After installing a second NIC card in the system, the workstation, server
and RPC services fail. In addition, the Windows NT Event Log contains an error entry
stating that my computer name is not a valid machine name.
Probable cause(s) and resolution:
1. This error occurrs when you have the NetBEUI protocol installed and bound to
both networking cards (NIC's). NetBEUI does not allow multihoming and fails
when machine name announcements are sent and received on both interfaces.
This confuses the system into believing that there are two computers registering
under the same name. You should make sure that NetBEUI is bound to a single
network adapter (under Network Properties in the Control Panel).
