Failure to automatically connect to "some Windows services" on sta

[Guest RandySh.]

Hi,

Every time I start my Vista Home Premium, I get the message (with a lock as

icon) that "the computer failed to connect to a Windows remote service" and

that "This leads to unlimited users not being able to connect to this

computer." Then I get a suggestion to check the event log to read about

details. Moreover, when i try to check my firewall settings, there is no way

windows displayes them, but at the same time the firewall is running

according to the "check this computers security settings". I also fail on

changing the settings for my private home network to become visible. Please,

help me figure this out. I am concidering turning the windows firewall of and

get another firewall solution, although reluctantly.

Question #1 - did you check the event log, as recommended? What information

does the event log provide?

 

Not using the native Microsoft firewall, out of frustration, does not bode

well for your being able to install or properly configure a 3rd party

application either.

 

The 'lock' is an indication that a security event was triggered or reported.

You really need to check the log, fix the reported issue before just

restarting the firewall over and over, something is wrong, there is an issue

that needs to be addressed.

Re: Failure to automatically connect to "some Windows services" on

 

Thanks for your answer. Yes, I have checked the event log with little

success, since there is so much information of little help to me, as I do not

understand the meaning of the information. One would hope that the

information was written/conveyed in a simpler language with practical

guidlines.

Re: Failure to automatically connect to "some Windows services" on

 

I have now succeeded in finding the event log information related to my

problem:

"Certificate Services Client failed to register Group Policy Notifications".

Error code 2147944153. I will attempt to find an answer online on technet for

instance. Wish me luck! In the meantime, any suggestion is welcome.

Re: Failure to automatically connect to "some Windows services" on

 

here's a hint...

note the time, run the FW, then open the event log and search for the time

you started the firewall. some of the things forward of the the time you

listed, should be related to the FW failure. Once you have an idea of the

failure codes you can use filtering to high light just what you are

interested in.

 

If you double click on the event error, you will be able to see a link in

the error listing, it will take you to possible online solutions and/or

articles which may address the issue or point to TechNet articles, fixes.

Note the Event ID and source. Then go to http:\\eventid.net and see if

there is any information on your error...

2147944153 is 0x800706d9 which is an HRESULT, EPT_S_NOT_REGISTERED, which

has descriptive text in winerror.h "There are no more endpoints available

from the endpoint mapper."

 

Perhaps by searching on EPT_S_NOT_REGISTERED you will find more useful

information.
