SYMPTOMS
A memory leak condition may occur on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4-based servers that also have Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) installed. When you try to log on to the server computer, you may experience any of several memory errors. Additionally, the server may stop responding (hang), and event ID 2020 may appear in the system event log.



CAUSE
This problem may occur if programs generate RPC network traffic. Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) generates RPC traffic when communicating with managed agents and may be affected by the problem that is described in this article.



RESOLUTION
This hotfix has been superseded by a more recent update.

STATUS

MORE INFORMATION
Although the problem that is described in the &quot;Symptoms&quot; section is known to occur with MOM, other programs that generate RPC traffic may also trigger this memory leak problem. You may experience this issue after you install Windows 2000 SP4 even if MOM is not installed or otherwise implicated.
