SYMPTOMS
You may encounter problems if you run the Remote Access Service (RAS) and the TCPIP_HUB service simultaneously on one LAN Manager Server. The TCPIP_HUB service should start without any problems, but RAS fails with this error:

NET3055: A problem exists with the system configuration: The system is not configured correctly.

The LAN Manager Error Log reports these errors:

3299 RAS0733. RAS was Unable to bind COM1 to ASYBEUI.

3299 RAS0731. RAS did not start because it was unable to open any COM ports.

Note: Some customers have reported that this combination of services can cause a trap error.



CAUSE
The cause of this problem has not been completely identified. The redirector may not be allocating an additional LANA structure for one of the net x lines in the LANMAN.INI file.



WORKAROUND
 Open the C:\LANMAN\LANMAN.INI file in a text editor (for example, Notepad). Remove the TCPIP_HUB and REMOTEACCESS parameters from the SRVSERVICES line. Open the C:\STARTUP.CMD file in a text editor (for example, Notepad).  After the NET START SERVER line, add these two lines in this order: net start remoteaccess net start tcpip_hub 

Additional query words: 2.20 2.2 2.10a 2.1a lanman tcp ip hub ras tcp/ip
