Found out one more tidbit.

I have the drive from the non working computer cloned in my office.
Looking c:/Softrack/Alwin/wksetup/AL-NET.ini reveals that the system was Version 8.0d.

Check the same file on the remote computer after doing the allwkst.exe reveals the Version 8.0C

Does this mean the the allwkst.exe on the server is out of date?
Could this be causing my problems.
