Access denied message

[dcwill]

I get the following message when trying to connect to a PXI controller running Labview RT 8.6

"Access denied: This host computer's IP address is not on the target's allowable access list."

I entered the controllers properties whithin the Labview project, selected the user access list and added both the IP address of the host PC and *, but still get the error. Reset the PXI system and the PC, no change.

Is there something else I need to do?

What happens if you try it from another project?

Jeremy,

I created a new projected, selected the RT system and still could not connect.

Can you see the system in MAX?  If so, reformatting it and reinstalling the RT software.

Thanks Jeremy, I was able to get help via email. The problem was with the ni-rt.ini file. The tokens pertaining to user access were not correct. 

  server.tcp.access="+*"

        RTTarget.IPAccess=+*
