Keith,

An RPC error is usually caused by either a DNS or a networking error. It
might be a networking error in your case ( as the error messages are stating
that the "connected party did not respond after a period of time....."

Thanks for your information.
Do you have any clues or any suggested actions for further investigation
One point I could only think out is the machines are in different subnets but I could share folder between those machines and there is no blocking of any ports between routers. What else will cause this

Thanks
Keit
