      GCFormer Networked version: workstation-to-server connectivity problems

           GCFormer uses the RPC protocol to connect from your workstations
           to your server.

           RPC is an old and stable protocol, but it can get disrupted by
           firewall changes, and overnight updates from Microsoft.

           The firewalls (Windows' and Anti-virus') must allow RPC communication
           to the GCFBinService executable (see below).

           It may be necessary to use static IP addressing for your network,
           and NOT to use the Domain Name System (DNS); especially if you have
           a Peer-to-Peer network.


           GCFBinService uses the following RPC settings -

                RPC_PROTOCOL = TCP/IP (aka "ncacn_ip_tcp")
                RPC_PORT         = 2051   (aka "endpoint")

           and the executable is GCFBinService.exe, which must go through
           your firewall (including your Windows and Anti-virus firewall).

           The GCFBinService executable is found at

                C:\Program Files (x86)\GCFormer\Networked\GCFBinService.exe


           If you get a RPC_S_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE error message, you can
           get more help here.
