Endpoint Protection

Whenever I attempt to access a network share in a remote location, whether it's a shared folder or the root directory, that is the error I receive.

I have upgraded SEP and it seems to have corrected this issue, but I would like to know why that may have occurred and what to do if I encounter it again.

This is on a Windows 2003 32 Bit Server

What components are enabled? What version did you upgrade from?

It was an older version, I am just tweaing it now to not have NTP and PTP

Can't say I've seen this happen before, were any patches or NIC updates done?

was it a constant problem or intermittent?

what was the version ? we can check in the release notes if there was an product bug which might have caused the issue

11.x

Intermittent.

Not sure about the updates, it's a server that practically that no one really pays any attention to.

Meh, working now right?

You could rollback to that version to see if you can reproduce it, from there we could look at some logging.

You remember the exact 11.x version it was on?

It's OK. It's my ACS replication partner. I want to fix that so, I will just leave it be for now.

Did it only have Av component on it when it was on 11.x?

was a bug 

KB 948732 Network shares become unresponsive after some time on a Windows Server 2003 or 2008 or 2008 R2-based-based computer running Symantec Endpoint Protection prior to 11.0.4202 (MR4-MP2) or Symantec Antivirus 10.2, and you receive an error message

For all older version of SEP 11. X keep bookmark this link

Here:

Windows Servers stop accepting network connections with Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 installed

I am so glad I asked!!!

YOU SIR, Are my hero!!!

I knew it!!!

Yea, I never dealt with that version so was news to me. Good thing for the knowledgebase I guess.

AV only

Why you even on 11.x any way it's end of life

11.0.5002.233

BTW, copy and paste still does not work.

Overlooked.

We still have a small handful, pretty much over servers of which I have no control over. Trying to push them off the end of the plank
