Kevin. Thanks a lot! The KB is KB#16567. It's a nasty bug. I have many language packs installed. The issue was that many records (around 15) on SHARE:Application_Properties form had blanks in "Data Language" instead of having "English". After a "modify all", it all worked.
I also realized that from my pc, through VPN, ARS server's hostname and FQDN were not resolving, only the IP. I updated Windows hosts file to have them resolved. Not sure if this made a difference. Thanks again!
