Error 2506

[gbaker]

I get this error on reboot quite often:
Event id 2506 The value named NoRemapPipes in the server's Registry key LanmanServer\Parameters was invalid. The value was ignored, and processing continued.

Does anyone have any insight?

This behavior can occur if you set the IRPStackSize registry value (manually or programmatically) to less than 11 decimal. The IRPStackSize value is set to 11 by default in Windows 2000 and is enforced as the minimum setting.

(On the Edit menu, click DWORD. Type 11, make sure under Base that "decimal" is selected, click OK.)

Try this:

To return the IRPStackSize value to the default setting:

Click Start, click Run, type regedt32 in the Open box, and then press ENTER.


Locate and then click the following registry key:


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Lanmanserver\Parameters
Click the IRPStackSize value.


On the Edit menu, click DWORD.


Type 11, and then click OK.


Quit Registry Editor, and then restart Windows 2000.

Thanks for the reply. This was actually dealing with the NoRemapPipes value in that key, rather than the IRPStackSize.
A bit more research has revealed it as a "Feature" for backward compatiblity, and can safely be ignored.
