Updated Vredir.vxd Corrects Errors Running Files on LMX |
Q138249
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 95
SYMPTOMS
When you try to run an executable file from a LAN Manager for Unix (LMX) version 1.44 server, you may receive an "Access denied" error message, even though you have the correct permissions to access the file.
CAUSE
