In any case, you may have trouble with Sendobject no matter what. We ran into this about a year ago, and spent the better part of a week pulling our hair out before we finally found the bug 'confession' tucked out of sight somewhere on the MS site. Upgrading to whatever 'fix' was supposed to...
Back in Sept a client's Win2k SBS server got hit by Nimda - despite having a full complement of critical patches. It took about a week to clean the server and stations and make some changes to lock down the router, and everything seemed back to normal. About a week ago, we suddenly discovered...
