SYMPTOMS
If you use Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) in Windows NT 3.51 Workstation and it cannot find the preferred server, any program you launch runs after a 10-second delay.



RESOLUTION
To work around this problem:


 * Run an executable file multiple times from the same Command Prompt.

-or-
 * From the %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT file remove the line:

lh %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16

NOTE: This option prevents Netware aware programs from running.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.51. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
