Windows – The RPC services keeps stopping

mstscservicewindowswindows-server-2003

For some reason, the RPC service keeps stopping which prevents me from remoting into the server. When this happens I have to manually make my way to the server to restart it as simply starting the service (which does not complain when starting), does not let me remote into the server. I have to restart the server manually to be able to remove into the server again.

It seems to be happening a few times a day.

Does anyone know why this might be happening?

If you go into the recovery options of that service have you set to auto restart if it fails?

If the service is still causing you issues you could use something like FireDaemon Pro with Fusion - http://www.firedaemon.com/

That way you can restart services over a web interface rather than having to go to the box and reboot.
