You will occasionally get the -1 error... it's just the way the timing 
works sometimes (about 1 in 20 for me if I run it in a loop).  Win32 
isn't very good at handling one end of a socket closing early....

If your machine isn't in a domain then it could just be down to the 
configuration of the network, or even whether there are active 
connections already (network shares normally).  If you're using kerberos 
(as seems likely) all machines should have a common clock source also.

In the last resort you can force NTLM but that's something that normally 
wouldn't be needed (except for old servers pre-2.0.58, because they 
don't handle Kerberos->NTLM fallback properly).
