when I try to map from the HP to the XP clone, I get the following error "not
enough server storage is available to process this command" (no error #) . KB
has work around for NT4 server, but nothing for XP. can map from IBM XP
clone to HP. All update patches etc are current on all machines. have turned
off XP firewall, done 2 recoveries, re-installed tcp/ip and other networking
services, been through HP's support.
network of 3 computers, HP w/ XP Pro (new) P4 1G RAM, IBM Clone w/ XP pro P3
512 RAM, IBM Clone w/ win2k P3 512 RAM. min/max virtual memory set at 2X RAM
+ 64 MB. no unusual CPU activity, Pagefile at 303MB, network activity less
than 1%. Using a D_Link DI-774 router (wireless disabled), can access the
internet.

Any Ideas?

Stu,

This is an IRPStackSize problem, and it's quite well known.

Hey Chuck,
This doesn't fix the proble for many people. Do you have any other ideas?

George,

We can't advise "many people", we can only do this one person at a time. And
each person has to try several values.

The default is 15. The instructions say to start at the current value (or the
default if no current value), and increase by 3, until reaching a maximum
(supposedly 50). Don't give up at 18, or 21, or whatever. There's no one
solution, it's trial and error, unfortunately. And each trial is different.
