Environment

NetIQ AppManager 6.X
NetIQ AppManager 7.0.x

Situation

Netservices_WINSReplication fails.

Error: 'RErr5(L96):Invalid procedure call.'

Resolution

In Windows 2003, the default behavior for a WINS installation is to install the WINS Management Information Base (MIB) but not activate it.  Activate the MIB for this script or any other WINS script to run. 

For more information about how to activate the WINS MIB, see Microsoft article 818021 "The WINS MIB is not activated."  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818021/en-us



Cause

The Knowledge Script is trying to convert a NULL value to a date string. This script uses SNMP to get WINS statistics, and if the WINS mib is missing or not activated the script fails.
