Remote server may be down

[cnrnw]

I recently set up a three citrix servers in a Xpe/Win2k Server/Nfuse farm using the access database.

Published applications on citrix servers not containing the data store get the following error when accessed though program neighborhood or PNA.

"Unable to launch applications. The remote server maybe down the launch.asp file location maybe invalid, or the launch.asp file contains errors."

If accessed through nfuse the following error occures:
"ERROR: Ther following error occured on the citrix metaframe server while attemption the complete the request: UNSPECIFIED"

If I define ip addresses in the program neighborhood properties for the citrix servers then program neighborhood access works for all servers.

Applications published on the citrix server containing the data store work fine in all cases.

Help !!

Thank you,
Tom

1. Make sure there aren't any name resolution errors on the network - for example if you initially setup the servers with dhcp then changed them to have fixed IP addresses, your local wins database may be resolving the wrong (old/dhcp) address rather than then current correct one. Try to ping the other two servers (by name not ip address) from each of the three servers as well as from the client workstation.
2. Make sure that at least one of your servers responds to ICA broadcast requests.
3. If 1.) or 2.) don't help, make sure that the data store is ok and that the servers that aren't hosting the data store are correctly pointing to it (see faq48-3892).
