Hello
After a reboot my PDC (VAX 3100-85 VMS 7.3 Pathworks 6.1) or for that
matter any system when Pathworks starts the browser goes into a start
pending state. I search the net for possible solutions and it seems
nothing applies here. The system is not part of a cluster
and I have more then eough licenses (400+). This problem also started
after downloading
some windows update.

I checked the logs and nothing seems strange or out of place. I should
state that
I can ping any system and I can even do a dir on some of the shares
Shared resources on server "AFRICA":

Total of 1 share

If I do a net view only 2 computers will show up - a windows 2003
server and a win2k
system. I am totally at a lost - I even tried rebooting everything but
nothing works. I cannot belive
that downloading some updates and rebooting a system would cause so
much trouble.
thanks
