And firewall?
I've seen them "revert" to setting on occasion... I've always suspected it to be tied to a hotfix/update install, but it's happen infrequently enough that I've never delved in to it? -sc From: Andrew S.

The dialog box just sort-of sits on the user's screen for about a minute before clunking out with a "This computer cannot connect to the remote computer" message. The VM is XP Professional, SP3. It was built by doing a P2V from a new Dell, and all had been working well until about a month ago. We had this same issue then. I got it working by setting it back a week in System Restore. It's broken again, and a reboot, a file system check, and 3 system restore attempts cannot get it back up. Unfortunately, making a new XP VM is not an option (without finding an available machine wiping it, and doing another P2V anyway). I have simply never gotten any of the tricks you folks suggested way back in January to get the XP setup to recognize the virtual disk. (I guess we could set everything up on Win2003 Server...?) Any ideas as to how to fix remote connections on any machine, especially a VM? Thanks... -- Richard D. McClary Systems Administrator, Information Technology Group ASPCA(r) 1717 S.
