nwadmin32.exe will not load

[HighlandTankMIS]

Situation:
Can't get nwadmin32.exe to run; when I double click or use RUN command I see a brief hourglass, then nothing. Nothing listed in the Windows application error log. Just won't start. I can run it from other work stations fine.
Windows XP Pro SP2 - runs fine otherwise
Novell 6.0 - working fine
I've tried turning off the firewall and anti-virus to test, but no change
All other applications I run are fine including rconj.exe. I can ping the server using IP address or name, so DNS isn't issue.

I can't find anything on Google to help and I've checked in this Forum's Advanced Search. Found thread about someone having trouble loading nwadmin in order to work on NDPS, but turns out that was fixed by loading lasting client.

I did try the flag /DISABLETLSMGR, but that made no difference.

Following is a directory listing from the snapins:

The IP address and DNS are pretty much irrelevant. You are running NWADMIN from a MAPPED drive?

You could try downloading NWADMIN from Novell's site at download.novell.com, install it locally and try that.

But if it works on other systems, I"d have to say it's most likely a workstation issue.

Marv...I am having this same problem. I noticed this after upgrading my client to 4.91 not that it is related. I looked for the NWADMIN download on download.novell.com but didn't find anything. I've done everything I can think of on the workstation to get this to run.

Any other suggestions?
