I currently have Citrix-Metaframe 1.8 installed on WINNT 4.0 TSE sp6. Two of my Servers disappear from Load Balance Administration without any warning.

As a result, no more connections are accepted through published Apps, and the ICA Browser Service hangs and the process cannot be ended from Task Manager or at a Command-Line.

Restarting the servers seems to be my only option to get them back into Load Balancing.

No luck on Citrix's Knowledgebase. Does anyone have any idea's?

Thanks,

Jeff C. Watts

A few things to check. First, do you have the MS fix applied?

ICA Browser Hangs with Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server SP6 [Q269214]

Are you running at least MF 1.8 FR-1/SP2? We have had some issues with SP3.

Back when we were running NT4 TSE and this problem surfaced, sometimes the RDP (I forget!!!) connections needed to be disabled, then the ICA Browser service could be stopped and restarted.

We also had some issues after the weekly server reboots where the browser service would fail on some servers. However, they could be restarted in this case.

No, I did not have the MS fix. I downloaded it and applied it last night. Now I have to wait and see. I should know by Friday if this will work.

I am currently at MF 1.8 FR-1/SP3. What sort of issues did you have with SP3?

Thanks for your help!!
