DSMN RAS Dial-in Properties Deletes NetWare Compatibility

Article ID: 169822

Article Last Modified on 11/1/2006



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q169822

SYMPTOMS

When you use User Manager for Domains to add, change, or view the dial-in properties of a Novell NetWare-compatible user, click OK to close the dial-in dialog box, and then click OK to close the user's Properties window, a dialog box appears requesting a password for the NetWare- compatible user. If you click Cancel in this dialog box, the NetWare Compatibility box is cleared for that user. In the case of Directory Services Manager for NetWare (DSMN), the user is deleted from all NetWare servers that are being managed. In the case of File and Print Services for NetWare (FPNW), the user cannot log on using a NetWare client.

NOTE: This hotfix should also be applied to the following:

  • Any computer running Windows NT Server Primary Domain Controller (PDC) or Backup Domain Controller (BDC) that is using User Manager for Domains to modify user accounts.


  • Any computer running Windows NT Workstation on which the DSMN Administration Tools are installed.


CAUSE

Rassapi.dll incorrectly updates the user information.
