We are having 8003 errors on 2000 (2)boxes that are running Application Center. Browser Articles (MicroSoft) for this event are not solving the problem. Has any one seen this and know of cause and fix? These boxes reside in their own VLAN.

I had 8003 error every 12 min. on NT4 server. I had to disable traffic for a port in my router. I found the info at cisco.

There could be a couple of causes of this error - the previous answer is one (add "no IP forward-protocol netbios-ns" and "no IP forward-protocol netbios-dgm")

The machine referenced in the event might have a bad subnet mask.

If all that fails, change the following key on all client machines (or at least the one referenced in the event): HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters\MaintainServerList = False
