Keep the services files in windows\system32\drivers\etc
Please check in SAP login pad whether the login properties tab your application server and system number are correct?
and also for checking the connection
go to your command mode ie run--> cmd
type
PING xxxxx ( Here XXXXX means your application server name from login pad)

I have some partners connects to the server.
I have kept service file.
About the ping, good idea... we have done it and is rare to comprove that the ping is timeout for me and for my partners (remember they are connected in sap).
I don't know....

This may be last option :-->
Reboot your system and try or reinstall your SAPGui.

Hi
In SAPGUI, I have an entry for MBD pointing to IP 172.17.20.38
I can ping that succesfully
If I add "sapmsMBD 3601/tcp" to my services file, then I get the error
Connection to host 192.168.120.157, service sapdp01 timed out
Now, as far as I am told by basis, the 192.168... address is another IP address for the same server.
I am not able to ping the 192.168... IP address ... could this be the problem?
Why would the portal be trying to use the 192.168... address instead of the internal address?
Cheers,
Andrew

My problem was solved by changing the hosts file on the server.
It appears our server has 2 IP addresses, and the IP address which was not accessible from our machines was higher up in the hosts file ... got the entries swapped around, server reset, and now workbooks open
Cheers,
Andrew
