"Missing Hardware id" message

Hi Support,
 
We currently use NSPK on our 2003 server.
Whenever we attach a serial port from one of the remote workstations for use on the server we have to remove and re-create the com port mapping if remote workstation is shutdown when we restart the server.
 
Is there a way to force the NSPK driver to re-create the com ports even if the NSPK cannot be reached?
 
This should stop those “Missing Hardware ID” popup’s when server is restarted.

Actually NSPK virtual serial ports are created constantly while NSPK is installed on computer. Apparently you get this popup message because your communication application tries to open COM port via NSPK but NSPK can open remote COM port when remote workstation is running only.
We will thing about how to resolve this problem in the next program version. Meantime you could try to restart your server when remote workstation is running only Smiley

OK, agreed. But unfortunately NSPK does not resume communication with remote workstations when the power up.
I checked, and there are no ports created in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM when workstations are not up.
The only way to get things working again is to reboot the server (tough thing to organise) or delete and re-create all the mappings when all workstations are up.
 
The best thing would be for NSPK to create the ports and just retry the connection to remote host when com ports actually open (and return errors to windows only then).  Is this doable?

We're still using 4.3 (you sent us downgraded license key) because 4.6 locks up our server on any com port activity. I suspect that dual CPU has something to do with this.
 
Do you have ETA for the new version and will it fix the freezing issue?

Dear customer,  
 
Please specify if the error "Missing Hardware id" repeated again.  
Since our program uses RDP protocol, than some minor latency is a normal thing.  
 
Please inform me about the result of your testing.
