When using IIS Services Manager (IISAdmin) to connect to a remote server running Microsoft IIS 6.0, I get the message "The parameter is incorrect."

In a capture of network traffic, NTLM SSP packets are seen flowing between the local machine and the remote IIS server via TCP port 135. After a RemoteCreateInstance request is sent to the remote IIS server, the remote IIS server establishes EPMAP connections with the domain controller using TCP port 135 then 1025 . Eventually, NetrLogonSamLogonEx packets are exchanged between the domain controller and the remote IIS server. Next, a RemoteCreateInstance response packet containing the HResult E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057) is returned to the local machine from the remote IIS server. The error message mentioned above is then displayed.

The OS on all three machines is Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP1.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!
