Rick,

This is strange then. We have several development PCs that have PWS, MTS, and InterDev installed and they work fine when accessing the component on the server (both Win95 and Win98 boxes). It's on the client workstations that we are having the problem. These are Win95 boxes. We can setup all the PCs on the same workgroup and see the server, but get the RPC error.

The server is NT4, SP5.
