[THIN] Re: Interesting Problem

I always kill those - partly because I don;t like stuff running that doesn't add value to the user's experience, but chiefly because I still don't trust legacy compaq stuff - long live NetServers! :D

Could that have been version 8.0 of the HP management agents?  Yes they are HP servers.  I'll give that a try.

 

Thanks,

We had this start start happening right after we installed an update to the HP management agents.  Don't happen to have HP servers and have done that do you? Try going to msconfig and disabling all non microsoft sevices and see if the blue screen goes away at reboot.

We have had issues with our servers blue screening throughout the day.  We have identified one device that has been causing the issue.  There server blue screens whenever the client tries to access the local drive.

 

Current configuration:

Server:

Windows 2K3 SP3

PS 4.0 RO5

 

Client:

Windows 2K SP4

ICA Client 10.2

 

I have run process monitor on the Windows 2K client when the server blue screens.  The ICA client (wfica32.exe) is trying to access a file on the client in the root of the C: drive  called smitfraudfix.exe.  I can move the smitfraudfix.exe file out of the root of C:\ and the issue is resolved.  I have put other .exe files in the root of C: after moving the smitfraudfix.exe out and the issue does not occur.  As soon as I put the smitfraud.exe file back into the root of C:\ on the local device, launch a Citrix session to a published desktop and access the client C: drive the server blue screens.  Anyone ever experience this type of issue?
