SYMPTOMS
If you use Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) to connect to a NetWare server that has the OS/2 Name Space installed, and the connection is somehow disconnected, you cannot reestablish the connection.

For example, if you press the F5 key to refresh a File Manager drive window focused on a disconnected drive on the NetWare server, the message The Specified Path Is Invalid appears in the right-hand pane of the drive window. The window is not refreshed, and the connection to the NetWare server is not reestablished.

This problem does not occur if the OS/2 Name Space is not installed on the NetWare server.



CAUSE
There is a problem in the reconnection code for OS/2 Name Space resources.



RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, install the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.51.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.51. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.51. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
