After installing MS08-067 (last weeks emergency RPC patch) none of my

running on VMWare Server 1.05. Has anyone else seen this behavior or
have
any ideas on how to avoid it? The errors indicated that RPC failed to

Thanks,

Restarting the servers solved my problem. I can remote to them
again.

The problem I'm having is that I cannot remote desktop to a couple of
my Windows 2003 R2 SP2 Servers. I haven't found a solution yet.
The RDP services are running.
The firewall is off.
I disabled and then renabled Remote Desktop on the My Computer
Properties.
I haven't restarted the server yet but will be trying that after 5 PM
today.
There are no errors in the logs regarding RDP.

I'm going to restart the server at the end of the day to see if that
resolves it. If that resolves it, I'll post again.

It wasn't just Remote Desktop for me. Group Policy didn't work, Kerberos
didn't work. Basically, nothing that required RPC calls to operate, which
is almost all of Active Directory's communications, worked until I
uninstalled this patch.

That's odd. We didn't have any issues with it at all.
