Hi All

Running WLM 8.5 and whenever I try to share an app or WB I immediatly get an
error on the sharing PC saying

The computer that you are trying to reach is not responding

The netowrk might be experiencing a problem or there might be a problem with
software compatibility

Error 0x80072746
An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.


Both machines are beside each other, I can IM and remote assistance between
them without any problems.
I thought our McAfee Firewall may have been the problem but after
configuring it every which way I resorted to uninstalling it but still get
the error.

Anyone any ideas how to resolve this?
TIA
gerryR
