To add to what Matthew said, if memory serves me right, for notifications to
work you needed to set an environment variable on your client too. I
remember this environment variable to be NTTCPCLIENTPORT or something like
that.. there may have been underscores in between..

I am actually surprised though that ARS 3.1 actually works on Win 2K3 and
SQL 2K.. sure you can downgrade the database version using stored procedures
which might have been what you did to get it working, but ARS 3.1 is almost
like a blast from the past and I'm surprised its compatible with Win 2K3..

Cheers

Just to confirm....

Did you really mean ARS v3.1?

I am not sure if v3 actually used _only one_ TCP port. I think it might have
used one TCP port per RPC queue that it spawned. ( If memory serves, you
could tell the server at what TCP port to start at, but it incremented by
plus one for the next RPC queue from there.)

But my memory is fairly vague on v3.1 :) .
