SUMMARY
If your computer cannot connect to a resource on the network, you may see one or more warnings in the System event log with event ID 3034 and a source of MRxSmb (MRxSmb is the Server Message Block, or SMB, mini-redirector in Windows 2000, with secure SMB capabilities). The description for the event is:

The redirector was unable to initialize security context or query context attributes.



MORE INFORMATION
This event is logged when the redirector is unable to make a secure SMB connection to another computer. To determine what actually caused the problem, examine the event log:
 * 1) Open the particular 3034 event in the System event log.
 * 2) In the Data box, click Words.
 * 3) The status code that resulted in the 3034 error is contained in the last DWORD entry in the list.
 * 4) The status code may be either a Win32 or a Windows NT status code. You can look these up in either Winerror.h or Ntstatus.h, respectively. Both of these files are located in the Windows SDK.
