I have followed a previous question on the same subject. I got a problem with this file on a small network of 3 computers. Could this problem occur when you are running TCP/IP and Netbeui at the same time? Or maybe using both protocols on the Network Adapter as well as an unused dial-up adapter?

Thanks

Well the setup you described in and of itself should not be creating the mprexe problems. I have one setup with those things and it seems to run ok.

However you might look to see if you have also installed and bound the ipx/spx protocol to the tcp/ip. This is really not needed (used for novell networking) and you might even have the ipx/spx checked to be used for netbios which will cause a problem.

The other potential is the corrupted password file potential. But it somewhat depends on when the problem is happening.

If you don't have novell installed then the ipx/spx protocol removal could resolve your problem.
