This will also happen if there is a firewall between the server and the
client. Perhaps the port is not being passed backward or forward.

I have seen it more often with Unix clients, but I think the possible causes
are pretty much the same. Another respondant has already noted the
possibility
that the scheduler service is not running. The other reasonably common
problem
that leads to this message is loss of network connectivity. This can be
checked using the ping command.
