Basically I had to create the IRPStackSize DWord value they mention, set the value to 25 (15 did not work), and reboot both machines before my shares started working again. I was using simple file sharing under WinXP Pro for nearly a year without issues, but a couple of days ago I started to get this error:
Event ID : 2011
Source : Srv
Description: The Server's configuration parameter "IRPStackSize" is too
small for the server to use a local device. Please
increase the value of this parameter.
My event log showed this error on my laptop when I tried to access a shared folder on it from my desktop downstairs. My main question is what does the IRPStackSize Dword value change and why would this error come from nowhere after my shares had been working for a year?
Edit: I'm using Nod32 for anti-virus, so it shouldn't be a Symantec issue which was mentioned in the KB article.
