SYMPTOMS
Windows NT file servers may log error 2000 in the event log with the following data:
0000: 00040000 00540001 00000000 c00007d0 0010: 00000000 c000000d 00000000 00000000 0020: 00000000 00000000 00000bcd
CAUSE
If a user application request is submitted illegally by a client application, the server logs the failure. The server is failing a SrvQueryBasicAndStandardInformation() call, with an "Invalid Parameter" status. The following commands result in the same error:
dir \\servername\ipc$
dir \\servername\pipe
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. This problem was corrected in the latest US Service Pack for Windows NT. For information on obtaining this update, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
S E R V P A C K
SRV.SYS has been modified so that these messages are no longer logged and the smbs are discarded resulting in an application error.
