Re: [U2] UV on Win2003, refusing new logins, UniAdmin issues RPC errmsg
For your information, I had to know of repeated cases where Windows 2003 cannot reboot when the SharedSection third parameter of the Windows registry entry in question = 8192. An US U2 Technical Support Analyst told me : The quoted Technical Bulletin is titled Maximizing performances for UniVerse systems - updated for UniVerse 9.5.1F... So, theorically, the document wouldn't apply after this (old) UniVerse release... ;-) In fact, we know that it can apply until release 9.6.x and on Windows versions earlier than Windows 2003. But, definitively : - Windows 2003 manages Desktop heap differently than previous Windows versions (This may have become dynamic... and... this point is not documented by Microsoft) - UniVerse Telnet Service at version 10.0.x have the option to Interact with Desktop, which makes useless for the need of the database this Windows tuning. - UniVerse Telnet Service + UniRPC Service at release 10.1 are both able to Interact with Desktop, and the need for this Windows tuning totally disappears. I answered individually to the initial message.

RE: [U2] UV on Win2003, refusing new logins, UniAdmin issues RPC errmsg
Thanks Jordan. I wish licensing was the cause, but unfortunately it's something far more insidious than that. For awhile I was starting to think it had something to do with this gigabit NIC card on the new server. The LAN is only wired for 10/100MBPS. When we set the rate on the network card down to 100MBPS it seemed the condition did not occurr as frequently. Now I'm not certain if that's true or not. joe -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Jordan Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 6:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] UV on Win2003, refusing new logins, UniAdmin issues RPC errmsg Have you checked the user license count using the Uv license tool.
