Windows NT Load Balancing Service Setup Screen Is Slow to Load (193600)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Load Balancing Service

This article was previously published under Q193600

SYMPTOMS

When the Windows NT Load Balancing Service (WLBS) Setup dialog box starts, it encounters a lengthy delay prior to returning control to the configuration screen.

CAUSE

The network is unreachable. You entered the final license key when installing WLBS prior to setting up the TCP/IP configuration and ensuring network access. The final license key causes the WLBS Setup dialog box to use the network to resolve the cluster's full Internet name to the primary IP address. If the network is unreachable, the dialog box will encounter a temporary delay.

RESOLUTION

Be sure to use the initial license key until Windows NT Load Balancing Service has been installed and network access has been established.
