Harold: First, you should probably uninstall UniAdmin and any other older U2 client software you have (unless you need it). Then reinstall the new version that comes with UV 10.2 (Try just installing UniAdmin first). Make sure you turn off your AV/Aspyware software first. I believe the most recent version of UniAdmin is 1.3.
The reason you want to telnet to localhost is to verify UV is running, along with UV telnet on port 23 (the default port). I only have the same three services running on UV: + Resource Service + Telnet Service + UniRPC Service My "netstat" shows: C:\Documents and Settings\wphaskett>netstat -a | more Active Connections Proto Local Address Foreign Address State TCP asibill:telnet asibill:0 LISTENING TCP asibill:31438 asibill:0 LISTENING TCP asibill:2940 localhost:31438 ESTABLISHED C:\Documents and Settings\wphaskett>netstat -an | more Active Connections Proto Local Address Foreign Address State TCP 0.0.0.0:23 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING TCP 0.0.0.0:31438 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING TCP 127.0.0.1:31438 127.0.0.1:2940 ESTABLISHED Port 31438 is the UniAdmin port. I've made a connection from my machine to UV on my machine via localhost. You should make sure UV is properly licensed as I've experienced the RPC service not responsive without proper licensing. The UV license I have is valid throuh 31 Mar 2008 (see UV control panel). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Oaks, Harold Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 10:32 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Trying to run UniAdmin with PE` Bill: Thanks for the hints! I can connect thru telnet localhost in DOS just fine. No other instances of U2 or other MV dbms. I have UniAdmin 1.2.0. Anyone know if that is current? No "Zone alert". Did not consider #4 below when installing Universe 10.2. I can type netstat -an and see TCP and UDP stuff, but I don't know what it means. What am I looking for? Defining the connection in UniAdmin to be "localhost" (it works at DOS) I continue to get the dreaded "No RPC connection active". Please, do you have the four services running? Or just 3 like I see: universe uvtelnet unirpc The older version I had of Universe had also this service: hsrexec I wonder if an older UniAdmin is looking for hsrexec and, of course, not finding it. Thanks to all who have sent in ideas.

I've installed UV, UD, and UniAdmin on my laptop numerous times and rarely had problems. The last problem was when I had UV 10.1 installed and it expired, thus causing UniAdmin barf.
