I'm stuck on the fact that it was working and then stopped working. Clearly something changed on the Windows host. I'm happy to help but from where I'm sitting it's difficult for me to begin to know what that change might have been. Anything you can think of might help. I don't really have a next step to suggest other than uninstall/reinstalling the ncpa software.

Not knowing your environment I don't know if you can do this... If you can, temporarily turn off (disable) the firewall on the Windows host??

The token field is empty. That's the field ncpa uses for authentication. Can I give you some good advice? You'd be doing yourself a huge favor if you dig into the documentation on their website. For just about anything you need to do, there's plenty of info.

Did adding the token resolve your issue?

Are you able to connect to the NCPA client with a browser? i.e., go to https://ip address:5693/?

Ignore the ssl warning that will appear, and use your token to log in.
Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
