SYMPTOMS
After a server has been running for a period of time, users connecting to the server over the network may receive RPC Server Busy errors. If users tries to log on locally, they may receive the following error message:

C0000017 (STATUS_NO_MEMORY)

Further investigation with Performance Monitor may show a nonpaged pool leak.



CAUSE
An IRP is allocated for a write to a shadow member. This IRP is never deallocated.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.51. A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully regression tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix. Contact Microsoft Technical Support for more information.
