Eric,
   Thanks for the information I will see if I can find Luke Leighton's book. This is probably not causing any problems on our LAN, but need to be sure!
 
   Thanks,

DCERPC is a standard IPC mechanism for Windows networks. It’s used for authentication, Microsoft Exchange, printing, and a huge boatload of other stuff. Get used to seeing it. Microsoft’s documentation is virtually non-existent, but Luke Leighton’s book “DCE/RPC over SMB” (available on Amazon) makes the subject somewhat less opaque.  It might also help you to study the CIFS spec.
