I have a licensed version 2.0 Build 2309 and I have received several workstations with the error code:” No network provider accepted the given network path. (Error: 1203) during Machine Connect”. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

That\'s a strange error indeed. Do you get the same error if you try to access the machine through Windows Explorer using something like \\\\MachineName ?
-
No I don\'t get that error when using IE.
-
NEWT should be using the same API as Windows does when connecting to a remote machine. Please try checking that same machine again with IE, then if it accesses ok like it should, try scanning that same machine in NEWT and let us know if you still get the \"network provider\" error.

I just had a Windows 2003 Server do this. It turns out that the \"Computer Browser\" Service was disabled (since this is a stand alone). After I enabled Computer Browser, it worked!!!
-
We wouldn\'t have thought of that unless we were sitting right there with it. That\'s an odd service to be disabled, but good work!

Well I had this problem on another Windows 2003 server. My starting \"Computer Browser\" didn\'t help this time. I finally found an answer in one of the forum posts about UNSELECTING \"query all resolved hostnames\" on the Scan by IP Range window. Well that did it this time. I did the \\\\DNS1 trick in Internet Explorer and it finds the computer. This computer is my DNS Server so it should be resolving its own name. I wonder what is up with that??? but at least I have the info I wanted.
Thanks.

May we ask what browser and version you\'re using? Perhaps it\'s time for a forum software update on our side.
